Ray of hope

Darkness
Has never comprehended light
It never will
That does not change the fact
That from the moment
The command was given
“Let there be light.”
Light prevails

What causes darkness to grow Diminishing light
Or
Light to shine brighter
Pushing back darkness

We control it
You and me
With each choice we make
With the thoughts we allow
With the actions we take
With the words we speak

Darkness tries to close in on us
Creating strife
Stealing joy
But light is always there
Waiting for us to choose it

Sometimes it’s hard to find
When our heart feels empty
And darkness clouds our mind

A single spark of hope
Is all it takes
