So, um, this is my first time posting something here on SoFurry, so if there are any mistakes they are all mine. I also decided to write this in a monologue form since i'm only good at writing things from a first person view. Critiques would be nice, but refrain from flaming please.


Even if the sun faded or the sky cracked, or even if the earth shook with such a crushing rage, I will always be with you. From every shattered bone to broken hearts, I would stand side by side with you. So who cares about the worlds trivial prejudices? We went through such trial and error, but it never fazed us. We were abused and neglected, but we always spat in the face of such negativity and laughed. We poured out hopeless loves and shattered dreams into this world we built. Even when we were cast away from the light and into the depths of despair, we always found our way back.

So you had a bad life. You probably felt an incredible amount pain and agony. Maybe you felt hopeless and sad. But does that give you the right to throw your life away? Does that give you the right to selfishly end yourself? What about your friends? What about the love of your life, your hope, you're light in the surrounding darkness? How would they feel, knowing that you are on a tight rope between love and despair, always leaning towards the edge of insanity?

I know how you feel. You must feel pressured and destroyed by society's harsh demands. Isolated and alone in a sea of rumors and lies, painted by a horrible, destructive reputation. But you shouldn't give up on hope. You are kind and generous with a beauty that reaches the moon. Even if you see yourself and feel disgust, your friends will always see you as an inspiration and a loving individual.

But more than anything, I am proud of you. Through all the highs and lows, through all of the difficult choices that we have made, I am proud of us, but even more, I am Proud of You. So don't you ever believe that you are anything less than kind and courageous. Don't you ever believe that you are nothing more generous and loving. Because life has less to do with pain that you feel, and more to do with beauty in your heart.
