surrender

As she waves a white flag, her heart dangling by a thread, she surrenders to the emotions that have been holding her hostage. She allows her tears to flow freely, as she bravely lets go and stops fighting and welcomes the release it brings. We all put on a brave face for the world. We hide our feelings and push on. This piece is about accepting that it is okay to break down and feel what we feel. It is in the letting go that we are able to build ourselves up again.
