I speak because I need to, not because I want people to hear.
I need myself to know what happened and why, not for people to feel sorrow or sympathy.
My heart needs to know it did its best, not that the world needs to know I failed.
But this is why I speak.
I speak because I beat myself up when I try my best and fail.
I speak because if I don't then people will never know.
I speak because I have to and I need to let the world know how I'm feeling and why.
I speak because my heart has been torn, smashed, and ripped out and stepped on.
I speak because I need to tell myself I am beautiful, wonderful, unique, gifted, talented and most of all special.
I speak because I need to say, “SELF I LOVE YOU AND AM THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU DO FOR ME.”
That is why I speak.
