18 The Two Types of People

Neither our youth nor our adults

cry for help. “They carry on

and hope

that life becomes easier to manage

as each year passes.”

Every life

is fueled upon relationships, work,

and a want

to feel alive even in the dullest moments.

The beauty that flows within us

can be illuminated

by the right love and freedom of life,

a choice we make early on

about whom to love and hate

difficult decisions

from which we make during every life stage,

even on the saddest of days

we don’t fall

but we attempt to stand tall,

blindly hiding it all.

This is one scenario as a human.

The second: people who crumble quietly,

Never asking for help and suffering

as life goes on.

They deserve an award

for their,

unfortunate performance,

“I’m feeling fine, a little tired.”

But deep down,

light is lost.
