On the Bright Side

The good thing about being burned all the time is that heat doesn't bug me as much anymore

The scars left only remind me of my strength

The good thing about being cut off often from people is that the physical cuts aren't a sign of weakness anymore

They're a sign of the beautiful nothingness that rests within me and around me

The good thing about being heartbroken is that I don't expect anything from anyone anymore

Being alone and empty is better than being left broken and waiting

The good thing about being numb is that I don't feel the tears that run down my cheeks anymore

I'm so used to the soft wetness and dry eyes it's almost a part of me now
