Untitled #YOU/Life

'Nobody said it'd be easy,'
and that's how it goes.
'Nobody said it'd be fair,'
And isn't that true,
How silent they were?

'Nobody guaranteed,'
But how could they have?
'Nobody said anything
At all.'
So give 'em hell
With what you got
What other path is there?
No promises,
Nothing given,
What choices lie ahead?

'Nobody said it had to be:
Hard and lonely
Scary and paralysing
Without any bright spots'

And that's true.
Give away your heart
Ten thousand times
Even if each of them
Harshly breaks it
You'll have practice giving
Yourself to the Gentle One

Take your powers
Take your strengths
Flex those muscles!
They belong to only you
And you, just you
Can use them.

'Nobody said it was easy,'
And that's how it goes.
'Nobody said it'd be fair,'
And isn't that true,
How much sheer
OPPORTUNITY-
Bold and strong and free-
They gave you?
