I'll Live

And she said softly
I'll live, even when it's unbearable, sad, and depressing and even with this heaviness, I'll live a life worth living for. I'll enjoy my youth, I'll dance in the rain, go for that party, wear that short skirt, I'll read all the books in the world and I'll write all the poems, I'll rebel and do what my heart wants, I'll kiss that boy I like, I do things even when I'm scared and I'll go on stage without having to worry, I'll believe in my instinct and do that thing even when I'm not brave, I'll look in parents eyes and say No, I'll do thing I only imagined I could try, I'll talk to the stars and I really believe maybe I could fly, I'll go on unplanned and adventure and I'll learn that saying yes is not so bad, I'll do things that I swear I wouldn't do when I was eight, I'll do the things I'll regret
Because when I'm old and grey what will I tell my daughter and the one after her, about my life, that I was a sorry kid who spent her time couped up in corner reading fairytales that she never got to experience. So I'll live, so that I'll be able to talk about the great adventures and give life lessons I've learnt along the way, so that when I tell my story my daughter can look at me and say "mum you've lived a full life", so that if I'm remembered they would remember all the funny, crazy, and wild moments I've lived. So I'll LIVE.

It's Still Abeegail ✨💗
