Breathe, Live & Smile

Each time you have to bite 

your lip to swallow the petty 

comment that other person had 

coming,

Every time you had to 

apologize for merely exisiting, 

Each tear that fell for a mistake 

that you didn’t commit and 

Each sentence you received 

without a fair trial. Soon you’re 

screaming, ‘Why me?’ but the 

universe only greets you with 

silence, so you clench your 

fists, your jaw and resume 

life with white knuckles and an 

abience towards everything.

    Exactly my mind voice last night when I was down.. controlling myself inspite of the constant intentional external triggers.. your poem says it all.. feels like written for me.. that’s an emotional work of writing.. couldn’t say more ..

      I’m glad you could relate to the poem. Realizing that the world won’t treat you any different because you’re a good person is one of the harshest reality checks. Knowing that even when you aren’t at fault, the blame still weighs down on you.
      I hope you’re feeling better today 😊

        🫂 I understand this feeling… Of just trying to get through the day. But night times are the hardest because you no longer have to forcibly smile or fake interactions… If you ever want to talk about it, you can leave me a email at writeerspace@gmail.com
        🫂 Sending virtual hugs.
