Choosing Myself: A Poem of Self-Prioritization and Healing

I am tired of making others feelings a priority
I choose me
I choose my mental health.

I choose to be selfish with my spirit.
 
I will not belittle my emotions to make space for your comfort.

Be uncomfortable for making me uncomfortable.

For all the times that you are mad at your past self 
Maybe feel sad for your past self 
For not realizing these earlier,
Remember that you made those decisions 
Because of the knowledge you lacked.

There is no way for you to go back and speak to your younger self
You can only store these words for your future self.
 
Make piece with your younger self 
so your future self won’t have to.
 
Allow yourself to make mistakes so you can grow continuously.
