Okay/ish

It is okay to not have the words 

It is okay to leave that message unanswered

to not return that phone call

It is okay to be so fucking sad

it makes your bones melt

It is okay to just stare at that wall

It is okay to weep from your core and

to not feel anything at all 

It is okay to let in rage and unfairness

It is okay to scream into a pillow

It is okay to bite a tree

It is okay to hate your body

It is okay to grieve the life you thought you'd have

It is okay to not do those dishes

and sweep that floor

It is okay to feel jealousy

It is okay to isolate 

It's all an act of survival 

What is not okay

Is to stay in that mode forever
