Nonetheless

You've been broken down to pieces,
And pulled yourself together nonetheless.
Your mind has reeled at the amount of things to be dealt with,
And gotten stuff done nonetheless.
You've been overwhelmed to the point of forgetting to breathe,
And inhaled hope nonetheless.
You've feared everybody else's verdict,
And put yourself first nonetheless.
You've struggled to even wake up some days,
And made it through those days nonetheless.
You've considered giving up on everything,
And restarted nonetheless.
You've questioned your very existence,
And rediscovered yourself nonetheless.
You've been through pitch black darkness,
And found light at the end of the tunnel nonetheless.
Whatever someone says,
You were, are and will always be good enough nonetheless.

Yours truly 💕,

The Ink Warrior.
