One day you'll wake up and be tired of waiting . You'll catch a glance of yourself in the mirror and won't recognize who you've become . Every step you take you'll question, every tear will hurt alittle more. One day you'll be done waiting. You'll become that woman that waited years for a change , years for you to feel you again. A random Tuesday will turn into a walk down memory lane , a Friday will be exhaustion and fear. That Monday you looked forward to will just be another thing to stress about and you'll stop caring .
One day you'll stop waiting , you'll start living the life you've always wanted . The life you deserved all along. You'll look in the mirror again, but this time you will see the girl who dared to dream. This time you'll see happiness at the end of the tunnel . All at once you will replay the last 3,5 10 years and wonder why , what took so long. Today was the day I stopped waiting .
I stopped waiting for forever and loved today. I stopped seeing what could have been and started making changes for the future. Every doubt gave me someone new to prove wrong. Every set back made every success that much greater. We all want someone to share the good and bad with but at what cost? We all want to live a life without regret but there's no such thing. We're all here just trying to get by . We're alone here in a world of responsibilities & surronded by possibilities. What was once a Tuesday walk down memory lane is now what looks like forever ago. What was a Friday of exhaustion now leads to a sigh of relief. We spend so much time trying to make sure everyone else is happy we forget to make sure we are. I woke up one day and decided to stop waiting , and that day I chose me. I chose happiness and laughter , awkward jokes and memories with family. I realized that i deserved better and started changing the toxic parts of my life.
When you’re done waiting ... you’ll wake up one day and not recognize yourself , that will be the day you’re finally done . That will be the day you rebuild , the day you realize you’ve been strong all along. You’ll find friends who stand beside you , you’ll laugh again. You’ll chase the dreams youve continued to put on the back burner. You’ll get your nails done again and your hair , & not because you need to impress someone but because you work hard and deserve it. You’ll go to nice dinners to celebrate yourself , you’ll get something youve always wanted because why not. Today you’ll choose you, today you will choose to be happy .
Today you are done waiting .
