Stay strong

The calm before a storm
Life was just in its norm
But all that changed in an instant
All things held dear now seem distant

Everyday becomes a battle to survive
Tougher each day to stay alive
Enough with the crying and sadness
Its time to take hold of this madness

Its not enough if we just live
Its time we started to give
Give back to the world all that we could
treat both good and bad as equally as we should

So go out there and stay strong
For the battle is going to be weary and long
Never ever give up this fight
lets show them all our might

At times when despair and sadness linger
turn back and show them the middle finger
Turn your back on the nay-sayers
Tell your folks to keep you in their prayers

We don't need any help from anyone out there
its enough knowing that they care
This is a battle we fight alone
no time to stop,cry and moan

Every single day dawns with hope
till all this gets too easy to cope.
Till then you got to hang on
Till then you got to stay strong


Dedicated to all the people that have suffered; along with me; because of me; caused suffering to me. For the quintessential human race which never gives up despite the odds stacked against them. For all those who decide to fight rather than sit back.

My dad used to tell me a definition of Heroism.

"Son, A true hero is the person who is able to hang on one minute longer. Suppose there are ten people hanging on the cliff's edge. If there is one person who is able to hang on to the hope of life and survival one minute longer than the remaining people, that person is the true hero."

I have been hanging for quite some time now. But with support from fellow hangers like you all.
