Listen to the voice of my writing by just.Tolu

I know how you’re feeling

A thousand feelings and a billion emotions

Moving at once through your mind

You try your best to act cool

Suppressing every ounce of negativity

And your mind doesn’t want to stop messing with you

Just don’t listen

I know it’s hard

I know it’s tough not to compare yourself to other people,

I know you’ve cried for so long

Begging for a breakthrough or just a slight u- turn in your life to hit the right direction,

Everything seems so bleak in your life

But don’t listen

Listen to the voice of my writing

Listen to the voice of your childhood self

Remember when you wrote that composition

Remember when you had no worries

Than just binging on your favorite cartoon

And singing along to Teletubbies

Listen to the voice of my writing

Telling you, you’ll be okay

You’ve been struggling since the day you were born

Yet you didn’t stop living

Why quit now?

And miss the happiness of tomorrow because of a minor setback

Why? When you can listen to the voice of God

Saying “you’ll be fine”
