I Know the Light

Folder: 
2-Strength

I knew the darkness.

I’ve been there many times.

So many roads and not enough signs.

The fear and imbalance.

The worry and fright.

I knew the darkness

now I know the light.



I lived in the darkness.

It was hard not to stay.

So many things seemed to get in the way.

Gravitating towards something

that seemed much more bright.

I lived in the darkness

now I live in the light.



I knew the darkness.

It chased me for years.

Until I finally decided not to give in to fears.

I finally said to myself,

it’ll be all right.

I knew the darkness

now I know the light.
