Ourselves

It happens to all of us.
The sudden shutter of the world we built.
Eventually we all witness the destruction.
Finding ourselves with nothing but that,
Ourselves.
A fair few of us will find peace there.
The rest of us will believe we've been left with nothing.
But it's a lie.
We have one thing,
Ourselves.
What does that mean to you?
To know that you will always have yourself,
Even if the world ends we will have us.
The most beautiful & power force.
Ourselves.
Does that scare you?
Fill you with dread?
Why?
Because of everyone in the world, who are we hardest on?
Ourselves.
One day you'll find a shadow behind your eyes,
Passion will leave you cold & exhausted.
Everything that once was second nature becomes a struggle
We are on our own with none other than,
Ourselves.
You will not like what you see,
The face that once was yours to share is only yours.
No make up, no touch ups, no botox or plastic surgery.
Just us reflected back to us.
Ourselves.
So make the choice.
Love yourself.
Otherwise, when it's just you, you will be alone.
