RIVER

**RIVER**

Bitterness never screams.
It seeps.
Through broken promises
and unanswered prayers.

It builds a home in your chest
and calls itself
realistic.

It says:
“Do not trust.
Do not plant.
Do not love.”

And you listen.

You call it wisdom
while it drinks the light
from your garden.

But nature…

Nature does not stay broken.

The tree lets go of its dead leaves
to save its life.

The river never drinks its own poison.
It moves.

Again.
Again.
Again.

That is the solution.

Move.

Cry.
Create.
Breathe.

Compost your pain.
Let it become soil.

Stand in the sun.

It still touches you
like nothing ever went wrong.

Bitterness is not truth.

It is protection
that stayed too long.

Open the window.

Let the storm rearrange you.

You were never meant
to stay bitter.

You were meant
to become

the river.
