Should All Things Fail

Life as you know it is over

Why, you ask?

First, you loved

Oh, that is very natural

Everybody loves

But not everyone are loved

That's why you felt pain

It's raw, it's bad, it's hard

And deep down

You only thought of one thing:

Die. 

Yes, how hard can it be?

Grab the knife

Slit your throat

Finished.

But, is that what "love" is supposed to be?

If so, then I am afraid

I fear the things love will do to me, once I embrace it

Is love a monster?

Is it too dangerous that you choose to kill yourself rather than live?

What would you do, then?

Cry? Throw a tantrum?

Scream at the heavens?

Want your way to be followed?

Why is it that people wanted to find love,

and for the shortest time possible?

But, as all of the searching go,

we never find what we want

We pass the things that are important

Because we kept chasing the wrong things

Beside love, what is life?

It's contentment. It's beauty. It's light.

There's more to life, darling

You just don't see it

What if, you stop, look back

And I dare you to sit back and enjoy that moment

You'll learn things along the way

Life is a journey we are forced to take

The only way to enjoy is to accept it

Face it. Be strong

Forgive, forget, don't ever regret

Life, as I realized, is full of games

But, as all games go, it's fun

It's fulfilling. It's LIFE. 

I think that's what I wanted to say to you

Get out of bed 

Wipe your tears

Move on

Life will not stop once you get dumped

or rejected

or left alone

Life doesn't stop and listen to you cry yourself to sleep every night

It goes on, with or without you

So, my advice? Go with it. 

Don't let precious seconds slip without you noticing it

Stop bawling and start living

I mean, actually living

Awaken your sleeping soul inside of you

Turn the music on and dance to it

Relive the better days, the best days, rather

And be yourself

It doesn't matter if you are not loved

Love yourself. 

Unleash your beauty.

Play your song. 

Rise again. 

Move on. 

Be happy. 

LIVE.
