Stop replaying that moment in your head.
Stop reading that dismissive message.
Stop checking your phone for a new message.
Stop judging yourself for choosing to trust.
Stop asking yourself how you could be so naive.
Stop acting like your intuition isn’t your most trustworthy friend.
Stop hugging your regrets and embrace acceptance instead.
Stop saying you’re okay when you’re not.
Stop pretending you feel safe when you don’t.
Stop living up to his expectations and define your own.
Stop walking around like you don’t know how purposeful you are.
Stop walking around like you don’t know how alluring you are.
Stop cursing divine intervention.
Stop romanticizing manipulation.
Stop justifying self-destruction.
Stop foolishly attempting to avoid self-accountability.
Stop acting like you aren’t deserving of a fresh start.
Stop punishing yourself for simply being human, so that you may begin to heal. |THIS.
