I am Brave

When the softness leaves his eyes . . .
I tell myself,
"Deep Breathe Girl."

When his truths sucker punch me . . .

I tell myself,
"I will be okay."

When I can't find the courage to even get up to leave . . .

I tell myself,
"I am brave."

After days like today . . .

I tell myself,
"HOLY SH@$."
