The Memoir Of Ms. Butterfly

I saw another beautiful soul left this earth.

Yes, I understood it was going to happen because that is the circle of life; we come into this world with a birth date but never date of death.

No matter how much preparation we do, it’s just not fair, but nothing in life is suitable.

Anytime a loved one is underground, a piece of me goes with them, and as many times I have been through this, I have found myself disappearing.

I’m tired of trying to keep my head above water.

Most importantly, I’m tired of living in this grieving bubble while I feel like everyone else is living.

Even the world doesn’t see my scars.

I’m scared, but those same scars will push me through and help me understand why I have had so many losses in my life.

The strong will survive, and I guess that’s what I am, even though it’s challenging to see myself as vital at this very second.
