Will the unwanted, unlucky, and misfits survive?
You will never know unless you live
When you’re finally awake and alive
You’ll be whole again.

Pain, sorrow, hardships and obstacles are inevitable
They’re just a reminder

Remember life is just a test
The storms, and darkness will soon subside
Better and brighter days will follow.
Look for sunshine
Live life to the fullest
Breathe in the laughter

Close your eyes to ponder
For what tomorrow may bring.
People will shoot you with their words
They will scar you with their actions
They will kill you with a glance
But still, like air, you’ll survive.

Be proud of who you are
You’re a fortress
You’ve withstood all unthinkable obstacles
The hurt and pain you endure will surely leave marks
Yet, resilience sees to it that both are mended.
Ignore negative voices and thoughts
