Live

If you ever feel like
You’re losing your will to live,
Live for the warm smiles you’re yet to receive,
For the loving bear hugs you haven’t been pulled in till now,
For the gentle touches your skin yearns for.
Live , Live for the people who adore you today,
And for the admirers of tomorrow,
For those faceless people of the future.

Live for the flowers you haven’t seen in full bloom,
For the constellations you aren’t friends with,
For the dance of the Northern Lights on the skyline you haven’t been audience to.
Live for the cats you haven’t cuddled with,
For the dogs whose noses you are yet to boop,
For the birds you haven’t chortled along with.

Live for the success parties you’re yet to host,
For the speeches you owe to the guests.
Float through this sea of gloom
For winning the days when life would feel more than mere existence,
When you will feel more alive then ever.

Live for the love of this person called ‘you’.

No adversity stays, if you do. This too shall pass even if it seems endless right now. 💜

In case you are feeling suicidal tendencies / thoughts of self -harm , please know that you’re not alone and seek help as soon as possible.

Yours truly,

The Ink Warrior.
