Broken 💔

There's a kinda heart the world doesn't talk about 

It's a heart that care and loves even when no one is watching 

The heart that sacrifices even when it's breaking 

The heart that lifts others, Carries others and still whispers don't worry I've got you

It's the heart that keeps pushing you

Praying for you 

Encouraging you 

Supporting you

And still showing up any time any moment 

Out of charity, out of kindness, out of love 

Not because you asked but because that's who they truly are 

And then... You make it 

The dream happens.. door opens

And in that same moment of breakthrough, that same lifting hand gets a sentence that breaks it

"I never asked you to help me" 

Said carelessly. Said as a joke. Said intentionally 

Those seven words 

They don't just hurt 

They erase 

The make the person feel like a coward 

Like their efforts meant nothing 

Like their love was in vain

Confidence gone

Joy gone

Appreciation is beautiful but we're so quick to forget 

To that helping hand that feels forgotten 

Your love was not in vain 

You did it with pure heart and God sees that 

Surely you will be rewarded 

And to the one who has made it

Don't let your success give you amnesia 

Because character is who you are when you don't need people who needed you
