Some chapters are meant to end,
sometimes you have to draw a line in the sand.
No more pretend.
Ready to move on, time to let it end.
All the riots survived and the troubles faced,
barely able to stand on two feet 'cause the ground was shaking underneath.
Earthquakes and sharknapping.
Jumanji real life.
Viruses, lockdowns, restrictions.
Freedom and foreign traditions.
Palmtrees and nightmares.
Sunsets and death threats.
The moments of uncertainty with nothing left but faith, still alive.
Still breathing.
The dangers of day to day life, mugging with guns and knives.
People who want to take lives.
And what now?
She still thrives.
Page by page, chapter by chapter.
Walking into a new life.
Filling the blank pages,
unravelling new pieces to the adventure,
knowing the best is yet to come.
"At least you have your life, at least you survived."
That's the other side of paradise.
