Which words do you believe in?
The ones uttered a thousand times over, but as hollow as their sound,
Or the unsaid ones, that silently live, but mark their presence at the most unforgiving moments

Which anticipation do you rely your thoughts on?
The one pounding you to give up, and accept a lost cause
Or the tiny sliver of hope, beyond reason, pressing you to stay

Which person do you want to be?
The victim that let the outside world decide his destiny, and romanticized the disaster
Or the victor, that overcame, chose, killed, buried, burned, and rose from the ashes, stronger than ever before.
From a personal affliction called my life.
