You Are Not Your Pain

I know how you’re feeling. I know the exhaustion that stretches across your skin and the emptiness returning to your chest after a long year. It has been a long one. You’ve survived so much. I know you want to huddle in bed right now instead of writing this, but I also know you ache [...]

To Cody; Words Written But Never Said.
