Problems.

Sorrow fills the pits of my heart,
I feel like I'm being torn apart.
Depression is cutting to the chase,
I'm still trying to put on a face.

When I wake up,
I feel like I'm in a nightmare,
When I fake it,
I go as far as I dare.
Before I break.
It's all I can take.

Stumbling as I struggle to finish,
All that I've started,
All that I got involved in.

All these problems,
I try to solve.
All these problems,
I create.
All these problems,
That hurt.
Hurt like no other.

Life has no antidote,
And I quote,
"The night is darkest just before the dawn"

Light And Shadow

When darkness overcomes one's soul,
One must fight with light.
Fear will not triumph fear,
A fight will not kill a fight.

A candle can conquer the darkest room,
A spark can start a fire.
An idea can create a nation,
The jolt charges the wire.

All things bright and beautiful,
All things worth fighting for,
All things which we live on,
All thoughts that we implore.

Don't cover your eyes,
And hide from the fight.
Join in and cure all those hurt,
Within us all is an unbeatable light.

Potential can create,
But it's never set in stone,
That the best is sure to happen.
You might be left alone.

But when we are alone,
We can become strong,
And build that light within,
Through experience and song.

Darkness will hide,
And light will reveal,
Which should you trust?
Which is best do you feel?

Paths make us all who we are,
So be careful in your choices.

Use this opportunity to become your potential.
Use this opportunity to be your best.

We all have a light within us waiting to shine to the world.
