Afternoon Poets
For sleep comes when worry leaves;

And inhaled hope nonetheless.
You’ve feared everybody else’s verdict,
And put yourself first nonetheless.
You’ve struggled to even wake up some days,
And made it through those days nonetheless.
IT TAKES COURAGETo be rooted in principles, To not do “cool” things because they violate those values, To stand up against the wrongs and the evil-doers, Even when you have to stand alone.To look around just to find noise that repels, To look inside and to discover an absurd silence.

The echo of faith in the emptiness of void.💫
Hope is choosing to hustle harder with patience,
When it’s tempting to self-victimise, slip into anxiety and impatiently give up.🌻
