It's all right
not to be fine
to drown in sorrow
without a lifeline.
Grieve, mourn, be sad
you are entitled to them
as much as you are
to joy and triumph
It's all right
to make a fool of yourself
laugh at your own silliness
be the joke where you're the star.
But never, not even once
let others take advantage
and make you a fool.
It's all right
to be lost within your mind
or far away from it, for that matter.
After all
aren't we all
a little lost sometimes?
It's all right
to hold on
to memories when they're all
that you have left.
Let go
only when you're ready
even then, let them be
your strength
It's all right
to feel small and insignificant
So long as you know
that you are loved
that you matter
just love yourself.
It's all right
Not to be
all right.
