Owe It To Yourself

So how have you been doing lately?

Are you still hiding beneath the sheets,
getting too comfortable in that dim lit room?

Or did you finally get up
To try and reach for the moon?

I hope that you did,
Hope that you braved the darkness.
Hope that you managed to run away

And flee from its caress.

Because you're meant for much more.

Till what extent shall one feel so sad,

Feel so sore?

But it's fine if you couldn't,
Couldn't leave it all behind.
Because come tomorrow,

I know you'll put up a better fight. 

Amidst all this,

I just request you one thing.

To not give up,
To not leave the ring.
You need to stand tall,
and keep going on.
You need to fight on,
And come out as a champion.

Don't you think 
You owe it to yourself?
To give yourself a fighting chance
And hope for the best?

To give yourself a chance to triumph over this darkness
And leave its nest?

So I ask again,how have you been doing lately?
Still wallowing in self pity?
Or are you seizing through life fiercely?
