Just another thoughts

I'm tired of being the person who always has to be strong. Tired of fighting battles silently, picking myself up after every fall, and pretending I can handle everything life throws at me. Sometimes, I wish someone would come along and remind me that I don't have to be my own hero all the time.

I just hope that someday, someone will come along and save me, too. I'm tired of being the warrior I've always had to be.

Sometimes, I wonder what it feels like to have someone who genuinely looks after me. Someone I can lean on when life gets too heavy. Someone I can cry to without having to explain why. Someone I can call in my weakest moments, knowing that just hearing their voice will make everything feel a little less overwhelming.

I'm so used to being in survival mode, always ready to fight, always figuring things out, always trying to be strong. But deep inside, I wish I could let my guard down for once. I wish I could be vulnerable without feeling weak. I wish someone would remind me that I don't always have to carry everything on my own.

But until that day comes, I'll keep choosing myself. I'll keep showing up, even on the days when I feel like giving up. I'll allow myself to rest, to cry, to feel, and to be human. I may be a warrior, but I am more than the battles I've survived. I deserve softness, peace, love, and a life where I don't always have to be strong. And someday, I hope to find someone who understands that even the strongest hearts need a place to rest.
