you are not the problem

I want to tell you that you are not a problem, you are a person.
You have feelings, contentments and frustrations.
You don’t want to settle down as you are.
You fight, you are an eagle, you are a warrior.

You choose to fight, rather than run out the door, afraid of what things might turn out to be.
You try your best to be friends with those who are sometimes not friendly to anyone.
Do you know why?
Because you don’t give up, because you fight for people and expect the best from them.

You know when someone makes an escape plan from life?
You chase, you chase, because you won’t let anyone you love slip through your fingers.

In fact, do you know what the problem is?
The problem is who doesn’t fight, who accommodates,
Who is afraid to face themselves in the mirror and lives running away from themselves, in many ways.
From the most common, to the most bizarre and humanly sick.

The problem is who gets used to pain and treats it as a friend,
When there’s a whole world out there waiting to be discovered and loved.

The problem is the lack of self-love,
It is the lack of compassion for the other.

You just want to be the solution,
And that’s not the problem,
That’s you being human,
It’s you being a person, not a problem.

You are the solution the world needs.
