Hurt feelings
How you feel usually doesn’t make sense
How cruel.
To constantly abuse kindness
like a game never chosen.
Hurting those you love
will never satisfy the soul.
Misinterpreting feelings
can cause damage
never imagined—
or felt.
Realizing human nature
comes with flaw and sin
makes a person stronger,
not weaker.
Understanding that everyone struggles
guides peace into thought—
forcing us to stay grounded.
Flourish in times of turmoil.
Let strength define itself
in the hardest places.
Even through pain,
we often choose poorly—
protecting our worst behaviors.
But why?
Looking in the mirror
won’t change an image.
But looking within
one’s character
can heal a generation.
Somehow,
while searching for answers,
we find simple resolutions
staring right back at us.
So before you look—
try touching your chest
and imagine happiness
as something you’re allowed to keep.
