PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Whatever anyone says don't listen to them...whether they be right or wrong, whether it be good or bad, because it doesn't matter in the end.  You and you alone are you and they have no say over who you should be.  Being you is better than anything else you could ever be, because otherwise you're just being fake. (And for this reason I'm not going to tell you that I think you are a wonderful, amazing person - because in the end it doesn't matter)  Sometimes you might think that it's better not to feel, to be numb- at times it seems like it's better, because the pain is less, sometimes it seems like the numbness is nice because you can't feel sad, but you can't feel happy either.  It's like ice.. and if it stays too long it won't melt; you'll be stuck that way, unable to feel anything except that wish to be happy.  This is the one time that it's not happy medium, instead just a medium...in between love and hate, anger and forgiveness, pain and happiness.  Don't let it fool you, even if you hurt for what seems like forever, eventually you will start feeling better, the pain will dim and then, when it does, you'll feel the happiness again and believe me, whether it takes seconds or years to feel happiness, and however short-lived or long termed it will be, it's worth it.  Joy is the reason that makes life worth living.  To laugh is one of the greatest gifts the world could give. A single laugh, equal to a million tears.
