I've got something to say. Life can knock me down with a punch to the face, and I'll taste the blood and smile and get back up. I want to experience it all. Not just the good, but the largest pains. Why? Because I'm stronger than that. I want to taste the blood in my mouth. I want anyone and everything to know that no matter how deafening the blow, I'm going to rise back up and be stronger.

 

Go ahead and take a shot. Life, you want to put me through experiences? Go ahead and let me feel the loss of a dying relative. Go ahead and let me give me heart to someone and get it crushed. Yeah, I'll fall down to my knees and cry, but don't expect me to stay down. I'll rise back up even stronger. And no matter how much more powerful the next blow, I'll eventually get back up with a smile on my face, lick the blood off my lips and say, "is that all you got?"

 

I want to taste all the flavours in the ice-cream store. I want to cringe as I take shots of black pepper vodka. I want to experience life, so take a knock at me. Swing with the best that you have. Because you better believe I'll get back on my feet, wipe the blood off my mouth and grin at you.

 

You can try and rip away the love from my heart. You can try to destroy my passion. You can strike me down with everything but I will rise back up even stronger. Time, you can hunt me down and kill me, but you better bet your ass my soul is immortal.

 

So bring it.

It's quite nice, that 'I can defy love itself' vibe, when it kicks in, isn't it?

 

I had a couple of weeks of it myself. After all the pain, the wondering 'why?', the lack of faith in myself.. POW! I was INVINCIBLE!

 

Feel it and enjoy it but don't expect it to last forever. (You'll turn into a narcissist if it does.) Be proud you are returning; of how loveable you are and your strength. And then ease yourself right back into the land of the living.

 

Take care. x
