You Will Find Your Way Back

I don't want to frighten you, but sometimes believing that things will get better is all you need to know.

One day- not long from now- something awful will happen. One day, someone will take your body from you. 

(Take a deep breath. I’m speaking to you from the future, remember? So that means you get through this. Trust me.)

This person- she will lie to you. She will confuse you. She will frighten you. She will say “yes” when you say, “no.” She will not listen when you say, “stop” (no matter how many times you say it). She will force her way in with one hand and cover your scream with the other.

You will lose yourself. But eventually- I promise you, my sweet girl- you will find your way back. 

You will ask for help and help will be given. You will search for comfort and comfort will come. You will seek out love and love will find you. 

Trust me. Things will get better.
