An oxymoron
Probably the biggest contradiction yet

How can one's life be so beautiful yet tiring?
A concept we are all well aware of,
life is full of ups and downs.

But why do we still forget to count our blessings?
Complaining becomes habitual because
it's always easier to remember the bad.

So why don't we channel that energy into the good?
Go through the motions of your downfalls,
take all the time you need to process.

Eventually, when you're ready - take a step back.
Focus on the present, dare to dream your future.
Be thankful, always - that we are living.

Only those alive, have the privilege of having emotions.
And these feelings, those experiences - which belong to you only,
are what we call life.

Youth - an epitome

In your own headspace
and all you could hear is your heart

Pounding
like you had an extra shot of coffee
Sinking........
your breathing gets louder and slower

In a wrath of emotions
As you peel the foil of the chocolate bar
and take a bite into your anxiety
it is bittersweet

You find yourself in a place
where you no longer belong
where expectations are high yet grey

What an odd age
An odd age indeed

Fun turns into guilt
Money becomes happiness
Love, a liability

But remember, while all things change
there’s one that doesn’t
It is Him

His Word remains, always

Emphasis has always been placed on
standing back up each time you fall,

it's just a matter of perspective.
It is crucial to get back up, but

it is more important to fall.
Falling helps us to learn, to stay
humble, to gain new insights.

A world so huge, where it sometimes
feel too cruel, dream big they say,
how do I achieve it when
we are only a person so small?

Little by little, everything will work out.
Keep going towards what's close to your heart,
they are what make the world a better place.

Keep dreaming, keep falling and keep chasing.

Acceptance and life
Beat yourself to it
Not beat yourself for it

Youth
Let go but never
surpass of your morals

Truth, I didn't

Question, why am I still so...

I am down, feeling down

Amidst the noise, you'll find peace

Warmth within your heart,
drawn towards the smiles and laughter,
you'll realise this is the best blessing

Solidarity amongst the chaos,
a reminder to be thankful

We are all humans
People who come from all walks of life

A different state of mind
All it takes is a gesture of kindness

Judgements are meant to be made
But, only to make others 2 cents richer

For what it is worth,
the entire community would be a better place

A painter of your own
Life is abstract yet simple

Count your blessings in every moment
As there are far too many
