Love is a natural high
People search for it
people do anything for it
But people abuse it
Love is a beautiful thing
It's more than anyone can ever explain
Maybe that's because everyone interprets it differently
Or maybe that's because it's a feeling
It's a deep feeling
But people cheat
They lie
They hurt
They cuss
They abuse
They turn something beautiful
Into something to be scared of
When I look in the mirror
I see pain written on every part of my face
I see eating disorders all over my hair
I see all the food I eat when I look at my stomach
I see numbness when I look at my wrists
I see a reflection I'm not proud of
And it just so happens that its mine
Whether from arrogance or negligence, I yawn at their stance
Not a chance I’ll advance.

Science tends to disagree - research believes in therapy
As far as claiming it'd make me happy.

        'Have a 30-minute walk each day',  
She dares to say as I continue to pay.
        'You carry trauma from your childhood'
        'Navigate your thoughts and it’ll affect your mood'.

Sorry doctor, I’m lacking modesty -
I seem unable to take you seriously and seeing you hurts violently.
I could easily earn your degree.

Undoubtedly, people will say:
        'How can she expect to be okay?'
        'She's abusing of her sick leave pay'
        'In no way committed to her healing journey'.

To which I’ll roll my eyes at any day.
Imma live to fulfill our dreams
You just rest in piece
I'll see you in another life
♥️
God says I am worthy, and so I am...

-Rhia Clay
Simple yet powerful words express that God loves us, and His love is enough. Growing up, I always felt as though there was a void in my life. However, as I drew closer to God, that void was filled, and my heart was also filled with His love. Many people have made me doubt my self-worth, but through my relationship with God, I came to understand how incredibly worthy we all are. I will never doubt my self-worth again. God loves each of us so deeply, without exception and without pause.
If it was only me in this world
Nothing would be different
I'd still be lonely

If it was only me in this universe
I'd still be chasing things
That are just out of reach
