“Your to fat”
“Lose some weight”
“No wonder he cheated you look like a hippo”
Your told these things on a daily
Bringing your self esteem down
But remember
Girl or boy
Your amazing the way you are
Don’t let anyone bring you down.

they say, too much of anything is bad for you.

so when i realized i have been sad for too much and it slowly destroyed me,
i picked up my guitar, belted out every song i knew.


because, too much of anything is bad for me, right?
too much emotions is bad for me.


they say, get a healthy coping mechanism.


so i did
when i realized i have been sad for too much and it slowly destroyed me,
i picked up my guitar, belted out every song i knew.


because too much of anything is bad for me, right?
too much guitar developed calluses on my fingertips.


now that, should be a warning enough.


they say, too much of anything is bad for you


so when i realized i have been sad for too much and it slowly destroyed me,
i picked up my guitar, belted out every song that i knew.


but i forgot that too much of anything is bad for me.

until i finally realized,
all the songs lost its meaning,
and all there is to feel,
is my sadness.


but you know what they say, too much of anything is bad for you
but this time, i can not prevent it

so when i realized i have been sad for too much and it slowly destroyed me,
i surrendered

love is hard t find,
time is hard to control,
change is hard to handle,
life is hard to mature,
death is hard to watch,
but everyday we surpass,
everyday,
we find love,
everyday,
were on time(somewhere),
everyday,
change happens but we change with it,
everyday,
life  is made everywhere,
everyday,
death happens but they go to a better place,
everyday,
life gets hard but that's what it is,
don't forget 2020 is hard now but we are
the ones who can find the silver lining.
so look for it.
