***
|
|
|
|
before, in your grief, you say
|
|
"everything sucks, and nothing is okay"
|
|
just remember how you used to watch the trees sway
|
|
|
|
in the death- the absence of light
|
|
watching the hands of midnight
|
|
scrape their twisted twiggy fingers, locked in eternal fight
|
|
|
|
take heart, little one! remember your name
|
|
chosen by yourself, pains taken care that it was not the same
|
|
as the people who took joy in you being the one they should defame
|
|
|
|
do not discard yourself to the tomb just yet and become a recluse
|
|
you think there is light there, but it is just a ruse
|
|
to detach you from humanity and rob you of your muse
|
|
|
|
you have far greater things in life still yet to achieve
|
|
you have friends, a lover, family, who in you they believe
|
|
just remember: for everything, if you insist, have a good reason to leave
|
|
|
|
if they drag you into the night, don't be afraid to wrack up a storm
|
|
take pride in who you are, and in your human form!
|
|
a god you are not, and a girl you shall stay
|
|
in terms of bodily functions, anyway
|
|
|
|
do not shy away from the natural state of the human condition
|
|
lest you lose grasp on reality and cause your own perdition
|
|
|
|
remember that there is no such thing as perfection in life
|
|
there is always still more work to be done, more things to cause strife
|
|
|
|
you are destined for greatness! now go, and make peace!
|
|
and bring hope for the future to the very least of these!
|
