Somewhere by Lolly Vieira

A poem I wrote after an eventful session in therapy. Shout out to my wonderful therapist!

you reach your full potential

by going through the healing

but the healing can’t begin

without the process of accepting

denial gets you nowhere

which is a dark and lonely place

nowhere is filled with

n o t h i n g

and

n o o n e

you

just

can’t

connect

so do the messy part

move past your own stubbornness

learn to let go

do the ugly crying to help you heal

go somewhere

something is better than nothing

someone is better than no one

don’t let yourself fall through the cracks

better to do a bad job at the hard work

than no work at all

inspirational
