I wrote this to cheer myself up when I was depressed. I hope it helps you.
In distant and familiar places,
All I see are empty faces.
Tell me, who wants to waste their life just to rot?
Words without meaning.
Words without feeling.
One of them?
I think not!
Like a precious jewel,
A star falls to the earth.
And like a solitary life is measured for less than it is worth.
Lives left untouched.
No action, words left unspoken.
You can choose to be like this.
You can choose to be happy.
Or you can choose to be broken.
