500 days

How much,

Can your life change,

In 500 days,

500 days,

Seems like a lot,

But really,

They pass in the blink of an eye,

Everyday I get older,

And wonder,

What on earth am I doing here,

Like what,

I’m in this body,

How did I land here,

I’m not quite sure,

And here,

I am,

Discovering,

How to use,

This body,

I’m like a baby,

I’ve got no clue,

Really,

What I am doing,

500 days,

So much can happen,

You can,

Have your heart broken,

And plummet,

Into a darkness of yourself,

Unbeknownst until now,

Plummet,

Into a dark, dark kind of well,

Which feels,

Just at the border,

Of life and death,

Really,

You could lose it all,

Just like that,

All that mattered,

It could vanish,

And what's left,

What remains,

Inside of you,

A little Jewel,

Maybe,

That which you carry with you,

Your diamond,

Your little secret,

Your own uniqueness,

Is carried,

Through all,

500 days,

Is not so much,

But it is quite enough to completely change your life,

You may,

Be at the precipice,

Of extinction,

Of hope,

To then,

Through a series,

Of coinciding events,

Be reminded,

Somehow,

That maybe humanity isn’t so bad,

It may not be as bad as you think really,

You’ve got to find the things that,

Show you the reason to believe in the good,

Indeed,

You have to be the hope which finds the hope,

Yeah,

You can’t lose that hope,

Just know,

It’s okay to cry,

Really cry,

Maybe,

That’s just me though,

I doubt,

Others share this experience,

And if you did,

I do wish you see the beauty in your little peculiarities,

500 days,

Live them,

As yourself,

Ask your heart,

And see what this brings.
