And sometimes it hits you when you least expect it. Like falling leaves but on an August day. It hits you and knocks you off balance but, you find a way back to reality. You find a way.

Sometimes it’ll hit us in our darkest hour when we needed it the least. You keep fighting. You are a fighter and he told you so. You knew you were strong before he made it known.

Some of us though, we don’t find the way. We don’t find a way to make it through. We struggle and overthink even the smallest thing. We’re sick from bareing the un cozy weather. Were sick of pushing back at the storm.

For the most of us who did make it, be strong for those who didn’t. For those who can’t. Because, the autum leave in the middle of August will hit you and you’ll realize that not everything is the way it seems.

He was a little fighter
Blood flowed down from his head
Sweat keeps his whole body warm
But after every hard fight
His heart starts to cry.

I see you smile so bright
I heard you laugh so hard
I felt your touch that so warm
I know that your heart beats so fast.

So please hold on tight
And fight for your life
So us can survive
And every dark will be light.

She
She cries at night.
She questions her worth.
She always finds her purpose.
She hates herself for loving too much.
She keeps putting the blame on herself.
She gets easily emotional and upset.

This is her story.
She is trying to fight the demons inside her.

crooked nose, bruised knuckles, uneven eyes. strange marks on your body where they do not belong. scarred and bruised and angry and ugly. i kiss the wounds that stretch across your sore body and say a quiet prayer.

you're thinning and your eyes seem empty, but i love you all the same. you're reaching out for something that does not exist, never will; i reach out too, if only in the hope to grab it for you.

you deserve the universe and the scratches on your cheekbones prove it. you fight like a wild dog but your heart is softer than anything i have ever known.

i wish i could save you. you and your twisted morals. you and your crazy love that has never given up yet. you have had so many chances to stop; to give up; to lead a life of morality and clean hands and hearing in your left ear.

you are so wild. you are so harsh. you are so ugly.  and i have never seen anything so beautiful.
i'm rambling again

They say that
It was too late
For them;
It was too soon
For me.  

Angels and demons
On both my shoulders.
It's not about what's right,
Or rather what's wrong;
It's about what's left.
Footprints and legacies.
Marks and memories.

They say that
I’m a freedom fighter
But the hypocrisy of democracy
They say that I’m Bruce Lee
Spinning kicks like
I spin sticks
Break bricks with those wrist flicks.

Top tumble
To bottom strike  
I remain humble,
Counting my losses
Punches thrown like
Words on the daily
Mind rumble
Like a busy day
With the bosses.

Dream believers,
Society deceivers.
World changers,
Evil’s dangers.
Life redeemers,
Broken bones,
Conditioned femurs.

Fallen fighter,
Fallen dreams.

Hoi.
Gesneuvelde Vechter.
"gesneuvelde vechter" --> Dutch for "fallen fighter"

Hey little fighter
I know you are
there

Hey little fighter
I know you might
be scared

Hey little fighter
do not be afraid

Hey little fighter
I know you will
succeed
Everyone has a little fighter in themselves. Be proud of it and fight for everything you think is worth it

Man I hate nights like this when i can’t sleep , got me thinking about my childhood days wishing that I can do a repeat ,if i could just go back in time with the same mind set i could be so much better then i am in 2018 ,cherish the youth you once had cause when your grown you realize that being a child wasn’t so bad , in the 25 years of my days i shouldn’t feel so much regret hoping to just delete all the pain and stupid choices that cause me to weep, sit back and relax cause there’s some things that i can teach the younger me , quick to listen and slow to speak , when you step in these streets always check your surroundings, keep them eyes and hears open never them legs so just stay focused on the goals that you want to make so that older you in 2018 would be proud of you for eternity, make yourself become a legacy so the little you that you breed will say yeah you made a better you for me
one day i was going through some things and I had a nervous break down like i wasn't going to make it in this adult life and i found myself coming up with this

You will not let me push you away
We grow a little closer each night
I worry about detrimental deficiencies
Constantly causing us to fight

My mood and mind change like a stoplight
Screaming red to calming green
Trying to outrun sporadic thoughts
I see demons repeat a ****** routine

Scared that perhaps these devils will win
I am learning that I have zero control
Chaotic wild wind in my chest
Leads to unhealthy sin; takes quite a toll

I try to withstand temptation
There is no faithful way
I give in to dark selfishness
Let failure take my drive away

Love to act crazy, that's how it seems
I am impulsive, naughty and nice
When I am upset do what I want
Turn colder than a block of ice

I might be rash, but your warmth teaches
Consideration early in the breezy morning
Persuading me to pursue patience
When I start unraveling with no warning

You swear not to suddenly quit on me
And you have shown me you are a fighter
I yell at you to leave me alone
You respond by squeezing me tighter
I love you so much thanks for putting up with me
Andrew Choo Apr 2018
They call me a fighter,
But...


I'm tired of fighting.
