Bruises And Bandages

//collection of favourite poems, quotes and song lyrics

Sometimes you are so convinced that the universe is conspiring against you,
You start believing that you don't deserve anything,
You want to lock yourself up and cry, scream, do something, anything,
You put on masks everyday, so religiously that sometimes you forget to take them off,
You feel alone, lonely, forgotten, heavy, desperate, incompetent, never good enough,

This compilation is just a small attempt to show that you're not alone,
You are not the only one suffering,
You're not the only one with bruises all over,
looking for bandages to cover them up.

Sometimes, a few words even by a random stranger can make all the difference.

You're strong.
You will survive.
This dark dark world needs all the rays of light it can get, and you are one of them.
Don't let them convince you otherwise.
