The Four Chambered Organ

If you wear it on your sleeve, you're bound to get hurt.
If you wear it long enough it might grow some calluses.
No. It's a muscle.
You have to train it.
Expanding, general growth. You have to train it.
After every marathon you need to rest.
Wait for it to heal before continuing.
Every muscle needs to rest, even the complicated ones.
There's going to be aches. It's going to be sore.
Keep going.
If you train it long enough...
there won't be a guarantee of pain free days, no.
There will be less rest needed, less aches.
It's a muscle; it will be strong and be able to withstand more.
It will be better.

Free Write: Fingir

Pretend. Pretend all over again.
I'm going to pretend that I'm fine. I'm going to pretend that I am not bothered whatsoever.
I am going to smile and reply and pretend that this new way is as easy for me as it is for you.

Free Write: I Don't Understand

I followed and behaved. I explained. I listened. I behaved.
How could it still all go wrong?
Instructions included yet the mess remains. 
Reviewed the requirements daily and yet here I stand. 
I can't bear it. 

Just take it all down. I can't bear to review the continuous replay.

All the questions proceed to repeat in my mind. 

I'll be quiet and wait for my time to come. Can the redemption song begin?

Don't Wait

Every thing ends.
Good or bad, they don't exist in this plane.
No great shifter will decide the fate of our moments.
The good will end.
The bad will end.
Know that the pain, the laughs, the difficulties, the triumphs, and every moment swaying in between, will end.
Relish the moments of glory. Fight through the moments of despair.
"This too shall pass."

The continuous task of replacing the sinking, bitter feeling with hope and positivity itself is a burden.

I fall in love with Brand New at least once every day.

Battle Scars

The crowd will either be there to watch you rise or to watch you fall.
Applause, tears, and joy will fill the entire arena.
They won't see the burns or any of the wounds no matter how prominent they may be.
They will never understand all the care spent on those infections or the waging battle inside.
Bend, contort, flail but never break...
Every one remembers the broken.
