Don't wait until it's too late

fight for life, cling to faith, self-love

Life has this unfortunate way of throwing you jabs,
it happens when you least expect it...
It often happens when you are enjoying the best of your success,
suddenly it hits you like a boomerang.
You fall and say to yourself this is just temporary,
then it gets tough and it hits you harder.
There will be a certain point you will lose faith,
you try to blame it on someone until you loath them.
Those mornings hit you hard everyday,
you can't get it out of your chest so you swallow it.
Family calls you to ask how you are doing,
you will lie through your breath and smile saying everything is fine.
Anxiety starts to build in your system,
causing depression, sadness, sorrow, and anger.
Night time becomes even darker than usual,
you let everything sink and swallow you whole.
Shower time becomes a habit of crying in silence,
where red teary eyes are the only evidence of it.
You're not alone though,
yes, you are not.
You were so blinded by the situation,
you forgot you have someone in the background.
You sank in your misery in full mode,
you didn't notice that person was suffering along side you.
Hold them tight, ask for their forgiveness for being a fool,
embrace them and don't wait until it's too late.
