Keep the Ones who Heard you When You Never said a Word

The tragedy of life is not death, but

what we let die inside of us while we

are here and know that people who

don't understand your silence will

never understand your words and

the only time you should look back

is to see how far you have come.

 

Sometimes it is okay if the only

thing you did today was breathe

and sometimes you want to just

disappear but in reality you just

want to be found because the

worst part about being strong is

that no one ever asks if you're okay.

 

Often in life we forget the things

we should remember and remember

the things we should forget and

sometimes we have problems in

our lives because of two reasons;

we act without thinking or we keep

thinking without acting and the

beauty of life does not depend on

how happy we are, but how happy

others can be because of you.

 

You can....end of story, so remember

to keep the ones who heard you when

you never said a word and what is

meant to be will always find a way

so be patient, the best things

happen unexpectedly.
