Fight back

|

It all started on a one fine day
I'm finding myself in my own way
Everyday's an adventure
There's nothing I can't conquer

||

I believe what's meant for me is mine
Bet I'm ready this time I know I'm gonna shine
There may be uphill battles, it's difficult that's how I call
But don't forget to get up eight everytime you fall

|||

If you're wondering why! This is not a lie
Yeah I'm actually shaking , as I highlight me, dramatically  !
So it's funny when someone says I'm taken
Yet others say I need healing coz I'm broken

IV

There were times  I get so exhausted, can life give me a break
Fear is no longer dominant and my life is at stake
I just hope to wake up one day and not feel like my existence is a big mistake
Because I don't know how much longer I can take

V

What is this crippling inside me?
Why is it eating me alive?
How is it that it's keeping me awake and not feel revived?
Well that's life , somehow we just gotta get a move on
As we fight the wonders of the unknown

VI

I may be dealing with anxiety
And getting mentally drained so easily
But revisioning the waves of the ocean
Makes me realize that there's tons of reason to keep on going

VII

The sea never stops from splashing waters as they reach on shore
So why would I quit , when I'm rotten to the core
Every step I take , in this muddy sand
As the wave goes by, there you'll see mee stand

VIII

My journey now  is not about love
It's about finding myself and acceptance
In search for better days ,and  real happiness for me to achieve
For the fulfillment of dreams , yes ! Still taking that chance .

IX

Knowing that life for me is scary
Think this hardships were too much for me to carry
So before everything sinks in
Will I stop from breathing

X

While balancing hope towards this dark side
Something inside me came to life
The courage to breakthrough,  as I follow this beautiful light
Then flash a smile as I continue to fight

XII

This year, leads me to some confusions
It was tough, thinking if this road I'm on is worth it
As I fix a mind filled with aerumnous
all I really prayed  were the good things in these moment

XIII

Why can't people simply be kind to me ?
It's more than travelling in shadow lands when you felt like the world is closing In
Then you felt an overwhelming loneliness
Where you hold unto yourself and left the world with blame

XIV

I'm not cruel nor what you think of me , it's just that I tried being real as you judge me even you know it's the real pain.
I've been misunderstood, getting left behind and invalidated many times .
All of it felt like it's for character development , while some of those traumatic experiences make me be the villain.

XV

I accepted that I am on my own
I noticed the things that I feel like I don't belong
It's hard surviving alone , but neither I am in any flock
I got to do everything, coz in life we need to fight back .

XVI

Never ending challenges exists
We all wanted this so called peace in many different levels
So, May we get to hold onto our inner desires
As we face the danger of our tomorrows .

 

      Let's get a grip ! We got this ! Hwaiting !
