[ Let each other live ]
This world is full of some people who hide away from the truth like cowards Do not have the guts to accept the reality. She fell in the clutches of food disorder because she wanted to be like the flawless instagram model. He did not cry after the break up because this world is in love with bad boys. The mother did not complain about the backache because this world believes in supermoms. He didn't open up about liking his neighbour because his love interest was not according to this world. Unrealistic expectations are kept from a person made of blood and flesh. As they consider themselves to be in an application where they can add filters and photoshop all the flaws. But this world...is a flawed one! Here people are full of imperfections they laugh at wrong times they wear same socks for many days they are not pretty all the time they are not strong all the time and they do not smile all the time. They cry...suffer from anxiety... they fall...but get up! Get up everyday to fight their battle. So please...let us breathe Let us embrace all our flaws... because that's how we will fall in love with ourselves.

But this world...is a flawed one!
Much has been said against me however, I will not be spiteful or allow hatred, the beast of darkness that resides in the black jungles of arrogance and ignorance, to infect me; for that is no reason to give way to anger. So I refuse to let anger ugly my heart; for anger is the scorpion’s poison of peace and love, it’s sunlight. I choose light contentment and happiness, as poetry’s not a contest of winners or losers; it is the essence of a poet’s soul.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it  will pass away. ~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is
My part. My world, My life, my words, You don't own any rights to my movie. So back off. Better still just disappear. Better still live and let life. My mistakes, my regret, my decisions. Look out for me all you like. But don't block me out from mine. Warn me all you want, Be concerned, be cautious. Desultory waste it will be. Still. Let me be. After all we learn from our mistakes, Or do we not?

My Part
When you feel the pain Through every bone, every vein You decide not to hide And instead, you walk with pride Is it worth it? When you climb a mountain So certain You will fly But you don’t, and people cry Is it worth it? When you see it in their eyes Beyond the doors, behind the lies And you finally choose To stop staring at your shoes Is it worth it? When you've been on the other side It can be hard to decide Consequences may fill one with remorse But it’s up to you, of course So tell me now, is it worth it?
