CRACKS by Becky Hemsley 2023


"CRACKS"
by Becky Hemsley 2023

I know you are tired.
I see it etched on your face in shadows and lines.
But I know that your fatigue goes far beyond your skin.
You feel it in your bones.
Your soul is so weary of this world. Of having to drag yourself through it when every moment feels exhausting.
And you think there is something wrong with you.
But I promise you,
there is not.
When water leaks from a bucket,
it is not because the water needs fixing.
It is because the bucket is broken.
You are tired
because the world that carries you is a little broken too.
And sometimes you are trying so hard not to step on the cracks,
trying so hard not to fall through them
that you have no energy left for anything else.
You are tired.
Your bones are weary and your soul exhausted.
But you do not need fixing.
You just need to learn to trust.
To trust that you can carry yourself.
So that one day, you might walk down the pavement
and pay no mind to the cracks in it.
Trusting yourself.
Knowing that, no matter what…
You are not going to fall.
