Falling

The times have been tough.
Emotional trauma, bad days, overflowing thoughts.
They eat into us little by little.
You would've died by the time you realised you have lost your limbs.
Like parasites, they suck the life out of you.

Sadness and joy come and go.
They are probably mutually exclusive.
We won't know joy without having gone through sadness before.
Clusters of thoughts close the mind to alternatives.
Break it off slowly and you will find that light of hope.

Cry if you must.
Be a daredevil if you must.
Kick and scream if you must.
Listen to sad sappy songs if you must.

Hopefully it would wash away those sadness in your eyes,
Even if its just for a while.
As long as you are able to keep that flame of passion.
Because that is where the magic is.

We are still under the same sky
And that is where you will find those close to your heart.
When time passes, your life grows into something unexpected.

Beginnings are always hard but they eventually blossom into something beautiful,
slipping pass your consciousness.
Thoughts that hid a treasure yet to be found.
We move on, to live and seek life.
In the end,
Are you who you want to be?
