Here's the thing
Life's a horrible thing
But it's also beautiful in every single way
People come
People go
People make you happy
And people make you sad
Somedays you feel like you're on top of the world
And other days it feels like the world is crushing your spine
And every single one of those 7 billion people are doing nothing but making the load heavier
And other times, people are the greatest gift to you
They carry the load above you like a halo
Sometimes you're so good at something and everything feels okay
And other times you mess up, ***** over, fall down, break apart, hurt and hurt and hurt some more

But Sweetheart,
You can't hide between those four walls
And keep the doors always shut,
Causing you to never see or feel the sunshine
All because you're afraid of the rain

There is beauty in everything
And there is terror in it too

And that, is life
Embrace it
