Keep Fighting

They say keep fighting All these wrongs that I've been righting What's left, left in these writings In the dark looking for lighting They say keep fighting A war which there's no winning The boundaries are only thinning I was love in the beginning They say keep fighting I don't feel! Like a paraplegic I fed my love to bulimics It hardened me, made me strategic But I say keep loving Not everyone will be deserving Paradoxical when you're hurting But even seeds grow after buried. I say keep loving I know it's a haystack but be a needle Love of self and another's equal Hurt people just hurt people So we need to keep living I put a halo on you like a blessing Sentenced myself from the lesson Forgot love and was regressing. No! I need to keep loving! My wall encloses my enemy Avoiding pain is what kills me My account of death resurrects me To love is to start living We idolize Netflix and chilling We say "Eff love" and it's soul killing Because we’re love but we stopped giving To live is to start loving
