I
know that you have your bad days
Where
you feel like
Nothing
is going the way you want it to
And
everything feels wrong
Like
you should just give up
Because
what’s the point of holding on
When
it’s all for nothing
You
think that you’re the only one
In
the whole damn world
That
has it this hard
God,
it’s not fair
Why
does everyone else look so happy?
I
wish I could be as happy as them
To
say that you cannot be sad
Because
others have it worse
Is
like saying you cannot be happy
Because
others have it better
And
there is no comparison
For
the depth of what you feel
But
I need to let you know
That
everyone has bad days
You
may think that the girl who always smiles
And
the boy whose laughter feels like the warmth of summer
Live
perfect, immaculate lives
But
their stories are just as painful as yours
Everyone
has a raging inner war within themselves
Just
because you cannot see it
It
doesn’t mean it isn’t there
So
the next time you think you know
A
person’s story,
Think
again
The
depth of a person
Is
only as shallow as your judgment
They
cannot alter your perception
And
so you must broaden your horizons
To
the possibility of people
Being
more intricate and complex
Than
you can comprehend
Because
inside each of us
Is
a universe filled with stardusted secrets
Of
wishes and hopes and wants
That
others will not possibly understand
Because
they are not the heroes of our war stories
And
we are all veterans of the wars we fight
Against
ourselves
Nobody
is as hard on us
As
we are on ourselves
The
wars in our heads may never end
But
I promise you this
You
will always win
Because
you keep fighting.
