Your Love Is Within

Here we are again,

Another ending,

A sweet beginning too.

You didn't lose yourself in love,

The time you shared wasn't wasted.

Yes,

Your expectations weren't met,

Yes,

You thought it was the real thing,

But is it okay to return to yourself?

Maybe you are what you need.

I know your heart is hurting,

I know you don't want to be here again.

You've already explored these caverns,

You understand what it's like to bleed.

Your grief softens you,

Your wounds become your wisdom.

What you see now is because of your past.

Heartache offers insight into clearer decisions.

Feel what you need to,

Process what you must.

Remember,

Endings aren't failures.

The act of trying is what counts.

You're now stronger and wiser.

You know more about what you want.

How does that happen without taking chances?

How do you learn without losing?

All doorways are shut,

That's okay.

You'll open the right ones.

Trust your timing,

Honor your path.

The love that's meant for you can never miss you.

Your heartbreak is the portal for you to discover more,

Love yourself more.

Isn't that the point?

We always return home to ourselves at the end of the day.

Take a deep breath.

Love who you are,

Where you are,

And why you are here.

When you love yourself,

For yourself,

And nothing else,

The love you are seeking finds you.

For it already was,

Always will be,

Within.
