Finding the light
It means alcohol is no longer a welcomed burn
You don't feel like a cigarette is the only thing to help your mood
It means the lines are not blurred, screams are silenced, and your heart is calm
You feel like all the weight is lifted off your chest and you can breath again
It means every day you can’t wait to get out of bed and see them
You know when seeing them you're welcomed with love and not a new bruise
It means no longer hating yourself because you love them
You live your life alongside someone who wants you to be happy
It means you don't have to say yes when you want to say no
You never have to hate yourself again
A healthy relationship means finally finding a light to live in
And never returning to the dark
