I didn’t even blink when everything around me started drowning,
maybe because I was already knee deep.
You can’t prevent the inevitable.
They say you can fight it,
but that’s a myth.
You’ll survive it,
but only once you’ve given up.
Haven’t you heard, “if the current takes you out to sea, don’t fight it, just let yourself be.”
Sometimes life’s that current,
and the only thing to do is let yourself be.
Stop punching walls that don’t exist.
Yelling at ghosts won’t change the past.
Hurting yourself won’t make anyone love you more than they do.
There’s only so much people can give,
and not every flower will be yours,
and not every heart will be yours.
Don’t break yourself down to make the pieces fit into someone else's puzzle.
I don’t need to remind you how long it takes to rebuild yourself
every time you breakdown.
We’re no ones sacrifice.
We’re no ones weapon.
We’re not here to drown in oceans of our own tears.

It seems that woman in our current society are constantly fighting for the recognition, acceptance, and respect from the rest of world. We are the ones called 'emotional', 'dramatic', 'excessive', and 'annoying' for simply expressing our feelings and demanding our rights. Theres this ideal woman society expects every woman to be disregarding the individuality of each human being. We need to stop falling into these norms that have been set up for us and separating ourselves from each other. There comes a time where we need to stand up together instead of dividing ourselves to fit into the world.
