Ya Fue Suficiente

The night doesn't weigh on me like it used to
I've learned to sit with my thoughts
Without arguing with them all
I've walked a long way
And I don't say it with pride
I say it with honest fatigue

I've cried what I needed to
And not just a little, but just enough
I've lost what hurt to lose
And also what I thought was essential
I stayed when I should've left
And I left when there was nothing left
That teaches too

Now I understand something simple
Suffering isn't an endless test
There's no prize for enduring too much
Nor medals for staying broken
When you've already learned the lesson

It's time to be happy
Not as a grand promise
But as a small, daily, quiet act
It's time to stop carrying stories
That no longer need to be told

I've suffered what I needed to
I don't owe myself more pain
I didn't come to this world to prove how much I can take
I came to live, even if it's slow
Or at least, better

I don't regret what was
Every wound had its reason
But I'm not going to keep bleeding
To prove that I felt for real
The past doesn't need witnesses
Just acceptance

Today I want a simple tomorrow
Peace without guilt, laughter without explanation
I want to sleep without defending myself
Wake up without fear
And walk without looking back at every step

I've suffered what I needed to
I don't owe myself more pain
If love comes back, let it not be a punishment
But if it doesn't, I'm better off too

It's not running away, it's understanding
It's not forgetting, it's respect for myself
There are battles that are won
The day you decide to stop fighting
It's time to be happy
Even if it sounds strange
Even if it's hard to believe
After all, surviving
Can also mean starting to live well
