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

Beautiful
Thank you!
very touchng....and well written.
I will read more of your poems, and will also read Tupac Shakur who I have not heard of.
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
Wonderfully written, it just shone through with hope
Thank you! 🙂
