I hope this reaches the right audience.
I may not be able to save you all, but please know that I'm cheering you from afar.
I may not be able to fix your problems, but I'm able to listen to you, within a shallow column.
I may not be able to help you, but I'm able to cry with you.
I may not be able to stitch your scars, but I'm able to appreciate the beauty of your scars from afar.
I may not be able to give helpful advice, but I might be able to guide you towards the light.
I may not be able to hold your hands, but I'll be able to gaze at you.
And cry with you.
And simply just...
listen. to you.
I may not be able to save you. In fact, I've failed to save multiple people.
But I hope my words reach you. Anyone. Even just one person. Even if I impact at least one person, that's already more than enough for me.
I know I can't do much. I know it's not possible to make everyone happy. I know it's not possible to turn everyone's frown into a smile. But you know what's possible? Taking things one step at a time. Even when things get difficult.
I know it may seem like nothing's ever going to get better. I know it may seem like you're alone in this, but you're not. And if you ever feel like the world is better without you, you're wrong. You're absolutely wrong.
The world is a better place because you're in it. And I know it's hard to believe it, because it also took me such a long time to believe it. You are so much more important for this world than you realize. In one way or another, you made such a huge impact in this world, significant or not. I know my words may seem like nothing to you right now, but ever since you appeared in this community, you only made me feel even more inspired by your words. And I'm grateful because you're here. All of us are grateful because you're here. Alive.
I know we may not know each other. I know my words may seem odd at the moment. But you. You are one magnificent person. You are way more powerful, and strong, and braver, and more important than you think. I don't know what we would be able to do without you.
I don't know how you'll take my words. I don't know if my words will pierce you instead of comfort you. I don't know how you'll react to my words. But just know that I'm here for you.
Always.
I know I can't save you. It's not possible for a person on the other side of the screen, typing this out, being able to save you just because of my words. I know I can't physically go out of my way to hug you or comfort you every day because to an extent, it drains me if I comfort others too much, knowing damn well that no one would ever do the same to me back.
But no matter what, as long as I'm alive, I'll always be here by your side.
Always.
