A message to kindred spirits

I see you, the ones who can't sleep at night because our souls don't know peace. The ones who look for the beauty in darkness because it's all we have. 

I see you, the ones who love the wolves, instead of fearing them. 

I see you, the ones who play the same sad songs over and over, to feel every ounce of emotion. 

I see you, the ones who wake up each day and place a smile on our faces for the sake of others, so no one worries about you.

I see you, the ones who struggle to wake up and fight each day. 

I see you, the ones who have more bad days than good under your belt. 

I see you still getting up and trying, even if every ounce of you internally wants to quit. 

I see you, fantasising over the fairy tale, even if life has given you the exact opposite. 

I see you never losing hope. 

I see the hopeless romantics, the empaths, the fighters.

I see you, and you are beautiful because you never give up. You're beautiful because you allow yourself to feel the highs and the lows, and accept that life comes with both.

I see you, but it's time for you to see yourself the way the rest of us see you. You are more than enough, and your depths do not make you hard to love. They make you even more worthy of love. And it all starts with the love you give yourself.

I see you. The world hasn't been kind to you... but I will. 

I see you, because in you, I see me. 

And I want you to know that you are not alone.
