Live It for Now

Souless Smile

Where to begin for those with nothing left?

From where you are. Wherever that may be.

Maybe we are lost in a crowded room? Perhaps we are abandoned in our bed after sunset? Could it be we are distant with our partner so close? Maybe with them so far?

Your story is not one of heartbreak, but one of Triumph. Not one of victimization, rather a Fable of Resilience. We’re not at the mercy of the world, we’re at the mercy of ourselves. Those who would rather die, have. Those who would rather survive, will.

You are the Reason to live. Say you will, prove you can, be until you are.


Don’t fall into the trap of unhappiness as I have done.

Look at your reflection and repeat:

“I AM the One.”

See the person staring back at you,

Know that what you choose in life will be true.

You’ve found the sorrow deep within,

I beg you to climb out,

And let the rain pour in.

Your heart is beautiful, your soul the same.

Our bodies come and go, like our pain.

The thing that stays

The most precious thing of all,

Is the one who feels. Who feels us fall.

We are but children who have grown too fast,

Forgive yourself for the wrongdoings of your past.

Don’t fall into the trap of unhappiness as I have done.

Look at your reflection and repeat:

“I AM the One.”
