After the Hurt From Rejection

We have to find zeal to live

By Seema PatelPublished 11 months ago 1 min read

Environment changes,

People develop new motivations,

You can’t fulfill,

You stop being rewarding,

They call you a burden,

They abuse you,

As if you are a thing.

You lose joy from life,

You take to addictive habits,

You get sick,

Rejection is worse than germs,

You spiral deeper into addiction,

And take toxic therapies,

No wonder here

death comes premature.

That’s how life ends,

We blame each other,

It’s the situations all along,

You can’t change people,

You can’t change circumstances,

So change your mindset,

Hold your head high,

In dignity, despite hurts.

Find solutions

Hard they may be

Not impossible.

Life need not be endured

but savored

being true to self.
