We grow up believing closure comes in conversations.
In apologies.
In answers.
We wait for the text that never comes.
The explanation that would make it all make sense.
The moment where someone finally says what we needed to hear.
But the truth is:
Closure isn’t always something you get. Sometimes, it’s something you create.
Not Everyone Will Give You What You Deserve
You may never get the apology.
You may never understand why they left, why they hurt you, why it ended that way.
You may never hear the words that would bring peace to the part of you that still aches.
And that’s one of the hardest part of healing---
accepting that resolution might not come from them.
But that doesn’t mean you’re stuck.
Because closure doesn’t come from their mouth. It comes from your decision to move forward anyway.
You Can Make Peace Without Permission
Closure doesn’t mean forgetting.
It doesn’t mean pretending it didn’t matter.
It means choosing to stop replaying what can’t be changed.
It means deciding your healing isn’t dependent on someone else’s remorse.
It means saying:
“I may never fully understand what happened, but I deserve to be free anyway.”
That’s powerful. That’s freedom.
You Get to Reclaim the Ending
Not every chapter ends the way you hoped
Some endings are messy, quiet, unfinished.
But you still get to write the rest of the story.
You get to turn the page—not because you got what you needed from them,
but because you’ve chosen to give yourself what they couldn’t.
You get to say:
“This hurt me. It changed me. And now, I’m letting it go—not because it didn’t matter, but because I do.”
Healing Isn’t Waiting—It’s Deciding
Stop waiting for someone else to give you closure.
They might never show up.
But you can.
You can show up for yourself.
You can feel the grief, the anger, the confusion—and still choose peace.
Still choose to heal.
Still choose to move forward.
Because closure isn’t about getting answers. It’s about getting your power back.
You don’t need their words to close the door.
You can do it yourself—with love, with grace, and with your own two hands.
And that’s more than enough.
