IS NOW THE TIME TO ASK OURSELVES?
How did we learn to act like nothing happened?
When they beat us in our childhood, when they told us to cry.
When they expect us to hug like it's nothing after being scolded for things we don't even understand.
When we are blamed for being offended, hurt and upset after they tell us what they want.
When we are forced to feel that we have to love our parents no matter what they do.
When we are silenced by saying that you are small.
When we are made to doubt ourselves by saying that you are a child and you don't know.
Because we got offended when they beat us
the next time we get scolded.
When we need our parents when they are insensitive to our needs.
When they don't understand our pain.
When they can't allay our fears.
When they can't be the language of our dumbness..
We have learned to ignore.
We've learned to act like nothing's wrong.
We learned to say NOTHING when asked what's wrong.
BUT NOW it's time to put aside what you've been taught and give yourself what you need.
They didn't ask you, but you ask yourself.
WHAT DO I WANT.?
WHAT DO I FEEL?
WHAT AM I THINKING?
