Light And Dark

sunshine777

I often wished this world could simply stay happy

Nothing unjust would exist

Darkness was not known

We would be filled with light

No child shall suffer

None left behind

How then would we appreciate our life?

Once my own darkness consumed me

I never thought I would make it through

Not without my own suicide

After the storm passed

The sprinkles of rain fell calm

The rainbow formed

For the first time i looked deep into my soul

I could feel myself glow

I smiled brighter for all I endured

All the pressure made me stronger

More compassionate

My light grew Wisdom

My darkness Justified

      Thank you. You are appreciated. Tupac may have been portrayed as less then he was at one time. If you look into his poetry and truly listen to his lyrics you'll understand he was so much more then that
