Hassles of Growth

Growing up is hard, its a mental task that so many of us struggle with,

it entails so many heartbreaking moments,

so many days were our heart feels so heavy,

we feel confused, alone, afraid, and just tired with life.

These are the days when we are just consumed with darkness,

with a feeling that is indescribable, filled with too many overriding emotions,

simply just overwhelmed.

Problems pertaining our mental state is a tough one to tackle,

it is sensitive, its hard for even the one suffering to understand.

So it's mostly a battle one fights on their own.

Easily breaking down multiple times in a day, and

feelings of unworthiness always rushing in even though you are loved.

It is called being in a dark place

but darkness does not last, there is light after every tunnel.

There are smiles after tear drops, happiness will come back to you,

light will radiate back into your life.

So don't prolong the sadness,

find ways to get back on your feet whenever you are feeling down.

Growing up and transitioning is uncomfortable,

During these gloomy days, I know its hard, and I know you struggle,

struggle to get up and live you life as per usual,

but you have to, we have to.

The sun is still rising and setting, and

the clocks are still ticking.

Life does not stop for you, it doesn't for anybody.

So you have to find the will,

the will to fight,

be it through prayer or whatever resonates best with you.

Faith saves me through hard times, trust in my lord literary guides me,

it uplifts me during gloomy days.

Maybe meditation does it for you,

maybe its workouts, talking to your best friend, long walks or marathons.

Whatever it is, whatever makes you feel better, go for it,

and don't stop until you are genuinely smiling for you.

I know some of these stuff are easier said,

and when one is stuck in hard trails and challenges,

its hard to pull through,

its even harder to be enthusiastic to do anything, or want anything out of life.

But you need to care, you have to care...

because as bitter as it may sound, someone has to care and its your life,

if you don't care, then who will?

Life knocks us all down, its not targeting its bullets on just you,

we all go through this,

we all go through hardships, so you are not alone.

Do something about it, and get yourself back love .

Ps- If you are severely dealing with depression, anxiety or any mental issue,

please help yourself, and talk to someone, find help.

Thank you
