i never was good at building walls
but now i must learn
to protect myself
with walls in the form of boundaries. a word i've only known for a short while. a word i'm afraid of but trust all in the same breath. a word that i choke on as it comes out. a word that still has little personal meaning, but i know to be important.
boundaries.
in the same space as having a voice. i need to learn how.
how do i have a voice when i was silenced as a child?
how do i set boundaries when they never existed for me, for my body, for my worth?
like a muscle.
work out. every day. a different muscle the focus each session.
slow progression
but steady as fuck.
