Poetry: ✨To the One Who’s Still Here
You are not a shadow of the woman you used to be. You are the becoming. What the world never made room for. They took your light and asked you to dim it so they could shine. But still you glowed. They asked you to give, and give, and give again. And you did until even your breath

you’re smart.. too smart ❤️‍🩹 late night poetry
