Strength, Courage and Bravery

Sometimes you feel like giving up,

Giving up on people, giving up

On life itself.

There's always a moment in your life,

Where you wish for people

To just accept you for who you are.

Sometimes, you feel like everyone is

Judging you, the way you dress, act,

And personality wise.

There's always the flash of paranoia

Of thinking that others hate you,

And just want revenge.

There's always that little whim, spur

Of the moment type of thought,

To change yourself, and make others like you.

Sometimes, life brings you sad moments,

Moments where you are at your lowest low,

And you think hat nothing will cheer you up again.

You think you're in depression, and nobody

Hears your cries and pleas for help. Everyone

Around you is so cheerful, you feel like the only person

Who is feeling that low.

But sometimes, all you need to do is sit back and relax, 

And be yourself. Then you may eventually realise, 

That people will accept you for you, if you do too.

There's always going to be a time, when you can

Get back up on your own two feet, and face the world

With a vengeance so high, nothing can tear you down again.

And that is what everyone views as courage, bravery,

And most of all, strength and power. The strength and will

To keep going, and the bravery to keep fighting back.

You can do it, we all believe in you.

Author's Note

There's always going to be a time in your life when you feel that nothing can cheer you up again. Yet all you need to realise is, you will get through this.

Sometimes we just get swallowed into this dark place where we wallow and get depressed. We often wish that the world worked differently, because life is so damm hard and we're just so tired of fighting for everything we feel we deserve. But life is not a bed of roses, and we need to fight for survival. The moment we notice that and we decide to suck it up and fight for the things we want, we will get out of that dark place and live life to the fullest. Only those who continue fighting for what they want will get it, and be happy in the end.

Yes, exactly. But at one time in your life, you feel so tired of even HAVING to fight for what you feel you deserve. If you feel you deserve it, why can't it just come to you, why do you have to FIGHT for it?
At one time in your life, you will feel like giving up. It's just that some have it earlier, whilst others have it later in their life, with more experience and wisdom. Yet, even adults falter in their life. It's never easy, you're right. But those who continue fighting, have feel Gd knows how many times. You must fall to rise again with a vengeance so strong, that nothing can tear you apart again (my favourite line)! Thanks for the comment. xx

Sadness is a never ending and dark pit that overtime swallow and wholly engulfs you taking all your wants and your cares even the brightness in your smile and leaves not but a husk of a being wanting and yearning for the inevitable end. Swapping the emotional emptiness of the existence one struggles through to the actual emptiness that claims us when our short time on the dying rock runs out. For when a person no longer takes joy in the eternal hopefulness of a child or the simple joy of a friendship old or budding but is bound only by the obligation to those left behind to stop the perpetual spread of prolonged unhappiness affecting the ones they used to love and must still love in some place in there poisoned mind and rotted soul .
I guess hope really dose spring eternal.
