Dear little me

It gets better, it just does.

You meet him and he teaches you to heal.

He teaches you that, regardless of what she has done, you are beautifully kind.

He rubbishes the critic she put in there.

He shows you the worth you did not see.

He demonstrates that we are in control of our own behaviour, and you are not accountable for hers.

He shows you what you can achieve and let’s you soar. And he does it with truthful pride. He shows you that you deserve more for yourself.

He loves you with all his heart and doesn’t let her smother your light. He teaches you how to stand up for yourself.

You are no damsel and he is no hero. He will show you how resilient you really are, you just can’t see for the trees.

So keep dancing. He won’t be long.

For once you fall in love with him, you fall in love with yourself.
