SACRIFICE
Do I have to sacrifice something to gain another thing?
Would it hurt to play unfair, if the world is too?
Does it kill a cat being curious enough to find happiness?
These questions are met by individuals like me and you
Maybe it’s not today or tomorrow, but in time…
I’ll be straight forward, I don’t have a great life
I don’t own much more than my watch
Everything I have is mostly given or bought for me
No, I’m no king or queen nor privileged
I don’t accept such titles since my intentions are different
Clearly I’m one of the lucky ones having it all
But having it all doesn’t mean happiness
And I quote, “True happiness is on oneself”.
Luxuries is not what I am here for in fact…
I specified that I’m trying to get out of comfort
Having to write your own destiny is what matters
A butterfly before spreading its wings freely,
It had to struggle with predators all around
It had to eat a lot to suffice its transformation
Mind due it was still a worm then.
So to go back on my questions is sacrifice a must?
Honestly I said BS to this because of this people die
I know we’ll all do, but some didn’t have a chance to live right
Why do think I have a watch as a possession?
I’ll tell you and I’m sure you might have guessed it already
Time is what I value the most.
Time with family, friends, fur babies, plants and etc.
Time when you experience new things!
And a whole lot more! Happiness is tricky.
You see happiness can be anything.
But the best ones are those felt and heard.
I’m not trying to tell you to be go cheesy on everyone
Just be honest who you truly are!
I had this quite a spectacular friend of mine
Called her, “One that got away” Eh... sort of
I won’t go into details of her but this is what she said,
Why do you lie so much? How would you know the truth?
I didn’t respond immediately but really thought about it.
Then replied, well I don’t know which truth is until it’s proven.
At that same time saw tears in her eyes.
I said sorry, “it’s hard to trust people, looks can be deceiving.”
Yep I left with those words, how disappointing it may be…
It got me thinking, who was I going to be then?
If I won’t be honest to myself then I won’t be ever happy?
See sacrifice can be anything as well
It can be a bad habit, like lying, smoking, and drinking
It can be sometimes being late all the time at work.
So what I’m saying is, sacrifice the bad
And take in the good with you
Be that change within yourself
I know I had to do it many times until now
And I know it’s gonna be fcking difficult!
I won’t try to convince you about this
But do give yourself that chance
Because you deserve it, live better!
