And I cover myself in a veil of innocence to hide all my sins.

Sometimes people radiate so much hate and that it almost freezes my soul. I am trying not to let the coldness curse through my veins. 

Nothing ever felt so hard.

You look into a direction of unknown opportunities.

chances to show who you are, take risks and just live.

You try to be a better person.

You know it's only a beginning. a start.

still a long way to go.

but you want it so badly.

You really do.

you accomplish things; almost to good to be true.

you start believing in optimism. and in yourself.

Then life shows at its worst and destroys your plans.

and you realise that you failed.

it wasn't entirely your fault but

you failed.

then it all comes crashing down.

Note to self: Don't give in. Not now.

Don't let life win this time. Don't let egoism win again.

Just don't.
