Acceptance

 When you give

Yourself to just be

You realize

You are healing

From a trauma

You always 

Denied existed

Tears fall

Not of sadness 

But of bittersweet 

Acceptance and relief

That you no longer 

Feel the need to pretend

    I understand this condition must be very difficult for the heart and mind to accept.
    At first it was painful and took a long time to recover.

    Para quê fingir? Mesmo que ria, mesmo que chore, há que ser igual ao que somos...
    Uma boa semana com muita saúde.

    Just being, why is it sometimes so hard? But when we settle into it, what a relief!
