They say life is beautiful.
A lot of people agree with that.
Despite the imperfections, life is indeed beautiful.
And people often say that we should enjoy life more.
They would always remind me to look at the bright side.
That every little thing is beautiful.
You just need to choose how you would look at life.
Happiness is a decision.
Life is beautiful, for some people.
And I want to see that too.
But it feels like I’m at war with myself.
And it’s hindering me from seeing the beauty of life.
This war with myself, my mind
Makes me think that death is the only way out.
I wake up each day wishing I was at peace with myself
Or wishing I was dead.
