Cheslie

Cheslie I don’t know you but your death affected me alot,

Young and beautiful going before your time was a shock.

Appearing to have it all, the education and fame,

But at the end of our days we’re alone in our name.

Cuz no one knows what it’s like when from the outside in,

it looks like you have it all so why would your light ever dim?

But pressure in your head whether perceived or not,

Boils, pulses, pushes like steam from a pot.

Building slow never relenting seems too big to defeat,

No matter how much success or happiness you’ll still meet.

And on that day it’s only you versus you,

an everyday battle, a fight that’s not new.

But people don’t know that even the strongest relent,

Constantly fighting yourself and all the mental energy spent.

You can win and win and triumph a million days straight,

but all it takes is one single moment to meet your fate.

A single day out of thousands to catch you off guard,

Don’t people know the burden of faking OK is too hard?

Rest easy my friend, you can be at peace finally,

just because you lost to yourself makes you no less mighty.
