It doesn't matter if the world doesn't see,
All that matters is the fire that only you can see,
The burning flame of zeal and determination,
In a world that can't see past their notion.
It doesn't have to make sense to them,
The step toward one's destiny lies in one's hands... So I heard,
Then why must one give up everything for them?
Remember, it is a normal thing for them to throw a glare.
Either walking alone or in a group,
All that matters is the burning sensation in you.
The world can laugh mockingly at you,
But remember you are in this world for "You".
Either broken, handicapped, or lost,
One mustn't give up, especially when all seems lost,
Instead, one must keep on moving the rock,
As long as you get to your destination.
Now is your chance, take it head-on,
Don't be shaken or feel lost in all,
As this is the beginning of it all.
Wear a smile and ride on.
As you are the last man standing at the top.
Life comes in every shape and we don't know which it may bring on; Square, triangle, circle, rectangle, trapezium, and others. The thought of living life to impress people is the beginning of humans' downfall as we all know how insatiable we can be.
Many times, we may want to take a step forward in life but wouldn't because we are left all alone, cold, and unwanted. At this time, we seek recognition and get broken if we weren't. This has led many into doing things other people will approve of even when they aren't happy within. They believe having people surround them makes it hard not to fall into depression. But, is it?
Humans' hearts are fragile and also can be hardened even when it means we will work alone to get to the top with no one cheering us on. Once determination sets in, you will realize you are your number-one "Cheerleader", which should be as that is the only way you can achieve your things in a world that fails to see you.
Many have killed the fire of great zeal in their hearts to follow people's Will which in the end bites them hard. Leaving the people they hope to help out turn to mock them endlessly. Adding more pepper to their wounded heart which unfortunately led many to suicide. And the most "Interesting" part of it all is that...
The world will move on in every state, with or without you.
I have taken steps in my life that made people turn their heads, it seems they always do and I just can't get enough of it. Chuckles. And the most "beautiful" part of it all is that...
I never let their looks get to me, I am not just a fighter, but a warrior who has seen the state of every battle life brought in and conquered each in ways that have left even me gasping like a fish.
I don't know how I do it, but I am glad I don't let people's toxicity get to me. Looking back, I am glad I fought those battles because I reclaimed the freedom that was needed and created paths, and still creating paths I follow.
I have held the bull by its horn and brought it to its knee as a "Keeper" and I have done that dauntlessly. And right here I stand, not just to be the "Last Man Standing" but, the "Man" who has brought great change to the lifeless soul of some people and made them see the light.
I have taken this route being the Last Man and I didn't quit when my body ached and my soul... Was broken, but like a Phoenix, I rose and continued through it all until life brought me here. A place where peace lies. My great craving coming to fulfillment.
And so I ask you;
Will you rather squirm at the glares that come your way or raise above it all even when it feels like... "You are the Last Man Standing".

Peace be unto those who crave it and more to those who chase it away.
