I’d like to make a toast to those who need it

 

Here’s to the fighters

The one’s that stand strong and proud

The people to look up to

 

Here’s to the jokers

Who are here to make us smile

Even when we don't want to

 

Here’s to the one’s we love the most

Without them, who would we be?

We’d be nothing

 

Here’s to the geniuses

The one’s that are smart

Whether or not if they finished school

Here’s to the artists

Giving us things to look at

Something that means so much more than what is seen or heard

 

Let’s say thanks to the people

Because they matter so much to us

 

Here’s to the bullies

The one’s that make you want to become strong enough to be better than that

The one’s that make it easy to tell jokes about because they’ve given great ones to people

The one’s that give us something to protect when they come around

The one’s who push people to be the smartest so that one day, the bullies will be the one’s who are the low lives while the smarties do something great with theirs

The one’s that can show people how to pursue their anger into drawings on a page or lyrics on a sheet

 

Let’s say thanks to the one’s that has pushed us down

Because without them, not everyone will have something to fight for or to prove

 

We’re supposed to prove things to ourselves

But without the one’s who literally pushes us into becoming who we want to be

Then how would we know what we should be fighting for?

 

So yes, here’s to the bullies

I despise the thought of them

But where would we be in our minds without them?

I don't know

But not everything will entirely be perfect

 

Also,

Here’s to the one’s we’ve lost

The one’s we look pictures of and then shed to tears

We shed because it’s hard to lose anyone

 

You can't just waltz into someone’s life and cause a huge impact on that life

But then go away as if you meant nothing to anyone or anything

 

Because that'll be be the biggest lie you would ever tell

 

Its dumb how someone can feel so alone but once they go, we all start saying #RIP

And then we explain on how they would have been there for them, but where were they when that person needed it most

 

But who am I to talk?

When I hear about a suicide, I’d think I'd be the one person who would be there if I was around

But maybe I wouldn't have been

 

That kind of thinking stops now

 

Not just to me, but to the others who say they wish they were there

 

Quit with the, “I wish’s”

And start with the “I will’s”

 

“I will be there for someone”

“I will stay up all night with this person”

“I will make sure no one died by suicide tonight.”

 

Lastly,

Heres to the one’s who made it.
