Storm
A lighting of pain across your chest, trying to regulate your breath. Dilated pupils and sweaty palms. Every second you feel your body withering down. Fog rolling in, mind shutting down. Searching for a focal point, hoping to gain control again. Quieting the voice in your head telling you, you are in danger. Panting, repeating…

Released
Knees on the floor as the water runs down your face. Covering the tears you shed. You kneel there drowning out the sounds of the world. Eyes closed, grounding yourself.

Broken
Your hands are shaking, your heart is pounding so hard it feels like it’s going to burst through your chest, there is knots in your stomach and you just want some sort of relief. You want to run as far as you can and yet you can’t move your legs. Sitting there with your body…

Exposed
To be vulnerable is to feel as if your body is washing away into million pieces, so fast that even if you tried you couldn’t pick them all up again. To be vulnerable means to let all your guards down and let everyone see who YOU are. Is the real you so bad or so…

Be free
They say the bravest thing you can do in life is to let go of someone you love, so they can be happy. Or simply you have to let them go because they weren’t meant to be in your life. But, is it true that if you let something go and it comes back it’s…
