Healing


When we run

Our muscles tear

Only to become stronger

When we are betrayed

Our mind and heart are ripped in two

Only to come back prepared

When we scrape our knees

Cut our arms

Blister our skin

It comes back a new

Stronger than before

Healing is becoming stronger

And it only comes from pain

Hold on

Healing will always come

No matter how long the wait is

Healing will come
