I was brave and young to try
I somehow made myself believe that this journey will soon meet its end
I will become the captain of my consciousness
I will be writing my future
I will be the author of my life
Someday, happiness will finally reign
It will be enough to withstand all negativities life offers me
And I will be brave...
Yet, I was too young to realize
I was blind yet I have seen the worst
I was deaf yet I heard all insults from everyone around me
I was innocent yet I am aware of this cruel world
I wish I was numb
I wish I will not feel this pain again
Love will never reign
Happiness will never prosper
Because if it did, the pain will be too much to endure
Since love comes with pain,
And one cannot be fully happy
Because after laughter comes tears
