Life Is Good Even When It's Bad

A Poem by Lana

She was a girl who loved life and dreaded it at the same time.

People feel two things in life, fear and love. She became two feelings, she was a divided soul who either loved too much or feared too much, and both destroyed her.

Her mind was a stone, with words carved into them since birth. She knew what she wanted from life, but was too scared to take a step forward and open the door. She wanted to stand still, and watch the show.

A part of her never truly wanted to be a participant in this game called life, the other part couldn't wait to kick the door open and get things going.

Fear made her become a frozen sculpture, there were no other way to move but to bring the warmth back, her fire back. And once she did, the cold air would slap the pores of her skin and make her cold again.

There were no escape, unless she was willing to bring all of her fire back in the front stage, and act, not be a participant but an actor on stage. Fear became her carburant to keep moving forward.

Life is good even when it's bad.
