it is going to be okay, i promise. 

i know that things are scary and mean, and i know that they can swallow you before you even notice. I know that sometimes by the time you do notice, it has become familiar, a comfortable setting. i am here to tell you that i understand, i really do, but you need to kick your feet before you drown. I know how hard it is and i know that it is an uphill fight, but i promise it is going to be okay.

you have no idea how loved you are, and you probably never will. and i know that not knowing is one of the hardest parts. 

maybe a stranger you were crossed the road with loves you, maybe a street cat you were kind to loves you, maybe the moon loves the way you awe at her. maybe a teenage girl in the middle of nowhere learning how to program a little to write this loves you (i do, by the way). i am absolutely certain that someone, something, somwhere loves you. i love you. 


please dont go anywhere early. maybe that stranger or that cat or the moon will feel your absence more than you could ever fathom, i certainly would. 

you are loved. please stay here. 








it is going to be okay, i promise.
