maybe you should stop
overthinking so much

and trust the way
life happens.

things change.

every year you grow
into someone else.

every year you have
the opportunity
to start over and begin.

to rise and face the world
the way that you want to.

take this with you,
you beautiful human being…

don't be afraid to fail.
don't be afraid to fall.

don't be afraid to get your heart broken,
and don't be afraid at all.

the fear is in your head.
the doubt is in your heart.
and regret survives in the memory
that is, if you feed it—if you
give into it.

so please,
before you go…

overthinking is a self-inflicting act.
it is suicide, the doubt of self,
the tragedy no one understands.

it is instant death
without lifting

a single sword.

so don't give in to it
you know you are

stronger
than that

and capable of
so much more.

You search for someone
To make you whole,
For someone to
Take you home

You search for someone
To hold you tight
Heal your pain and
Make you feel allright

When everything was
Right in your eyes
You were busy searching for
Someone else, while you
Should have always
Loved yourself

you're a bird

and you don't need
a pair of wings

to tell you who you are.

the same way
you don't need a lover

to make you feel
as if

your heart is free.

I have scars
Scars that you don't see
But you can hear
My fear
A thousand cut
From thousand words
A thousand birds
Tell lil secrets
I am spec of ash
In sea of sand
How did you find me
I am drop of water
In roaring ocean
I slit a wrist pouring ocean
I bleed
On everything
I touch
I hated them all so much
And loved myself even less
Pain is deep inside me
I supress it
Nonetheless
Bullied to the point
You make a bullet point
Of names to put at bullet point
But if they all die ( only if)
I would deprive
Myself of the greatest revenge
The end of ends
What is it then?
You ask!?
The greatest revenge....

Yes
Stop saying “Yes”
When all you wanted was to say no.

This is your life,
You owe nothing to nobody.
You serve the consequences of the choices you make.
Ain’t nobody doing anything for you, you’ve got to do it yourself.

And if anybody by chances does above mentioned things for you, hold on to them!

You either slay someone’s demon
Or you become one.

There’s no in between!

Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.

Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.

Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be pave.

Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find time. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings!

Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.

Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.

Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.

Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.“
