Keep Going

Picking up the pieces,
Filling in the blanks,
Holding yourself together as your heart sinks

Locking every door,
Telling yourself, "It's okay."
Gathering the courage to go on another day

Breathing in, breathing out,
Counting to ten, no matter how much your voice shakes,
Grounding yourself. Trust you know real from fake

Take a step forward,
Hold your head high,
Remember it's just a bad moment, and you'll keep getting by.
