Finding Hope

Posted on 1st Sep 2020 by rohit kumar

I've always viewed life from the sidelines,

Just watching it passing me by.

In the past, too afraid to just let go and live,

And lately too tired to try.

 

I've envied the people around me

So invested in living each day,

While I spent my time hiding out from the world

And searching for ways to escape.

 

For most of my life, I truly believed

I was here to help somebody else,

But now it's so clear it was just an excuse.

To avoid living life for myself.

 

So the time has now come to conquer my fears

And to stand up and face a new day.

Let the hurts of my past wash away with my tears

And stop letting my life slip away.
