i will cheer you on: a poem



I hate who you have become.
You lost your charm, 
your charisma. 
You used to be so kind.
I guess life got the best 
of you. It seems like you 
just gave up. You stopped 
fighting for the truth and laid
with the lies.

How does it feel? To be on top 
of the world, as if you are peering
down the edge of a cliff,
your life can be taken at 
any moment and how would
you be remembered? 

What have you done
with yourself? You have 
lost your fighter's spirit. 
Your resilience is gone, 
and your appetite for 
ease and comfort has 
grown. You are living the 
life you think you should 
live, and deep down, I know 
you wont be happy.
You cannot be a professional
pretender forever. 

However, 
I will cheer you on. 
I will mourn in silence 
for your tenacity,
your strength, and your
need to want better. 
I am not sure if you will 
ever want like you wanted
again. 
I just hope that you never 
make the decision of 
regretting that you 
could have fought 
a little harder.
