You cannot have happiness,
Without sorrow in your heart.
You cannot live a great life,
Without first falling apart.
~
You cannot find an ending,
If you never even start.
You cannot find the light,
Without walking through the dark.
~
This is where the line lives,
Between the living and the dead.
You have to breach them both,
Or you’ll always be in your head.
~
Life will always be, uncertain,
Like the rainbow I’ve spoke about.
And the light could not exist,
If the darkness, Never, came about.
~
The dead, do walk among us,
Feeling hopeless and ashamed.
While the living, dance around us,
Embracing the past, that they claim.
~
Failure is not a burden,
But a lesson we all need to learn.
Success is not about the money,
But rather, the life we all deserve.
~
So invoke the darkness to join you,
Show God your not afraid.
Let the darkness guide you, to your prize,
Which is the light that awaits.
