Don’t Mistake

E2424DEA-49A6-49F6-9F66-72E1B1870A35

Don’t mistake my dry eyes and smile for being okay. I will never be alright again. I will wear my grief everywhere for the rest of my life, it’s part of me now. When I get through the day, have made it out of bed and chose to go into the world this day, I am choosing to live for the ones I love. But don’t mistake my living as moving on, I will never move on, I will only mark every life event as before or after. And please, don’t mistake when I have emotions as weakness, I am a strong mother f…er!

  1. I’m so sorry to read what has happened 💗

  2. Right, smiling and being happy doesn’t mean we have forgotten the grief and pain of losing someone.
