The Darkness

Just a quick note: I do not feel any of this right now.  In fact I feel the complete opposite.  But without ever feeling the darkness, I would never be able to fully appreciate the light that is my life right now!

Have you ever been in such a dark place.

You wouldn't even recognize your own face.

When life is moving so fast.

No matter how hard you run you always get kicked in the ass.

You trip, stumble, and fall to the ground.

And you scream, and no around hear's your sound.

Have you ever had your whole world crumble around you.

When giving up seemed to be the only thing you were capable to do.

That you have cried so much there are no more tears to cry.

And the only thing you can do to be is happy is try.

 Everywhere else you look in the world you see light.

And you look inside yourself and everything is not right.

You must look to your friends and family for the hope they will bring.

Their love, compassion, and understanding they will sing.

The good people in your life will not point and stare.

They will stop at nothing to show how much they care.

Your inner light might be dim, but it is not gone.

With the help of others it will find its old song.

We were not created to take on the world by ourselves.

We were born to live in it with the ones we love.

Friends, family, and everything above.

So that darkness give it a big shove.

For the light to come back it must be you that you truly love.
