New Dawn

'The night is darkest before dawn'....

There are times in everyones lives where there is darkness and there is light. just when it seems that problem would never end, we see that small ray of light. a ray of hope that its going to get brighter. Life is that way.

I woke up one morning to stare at the darkness. The darkness looked right into me. Tightening its grip around me with each second passing by. I stood there looking at the sky. Helpless. Waiting for the dawn. A ray of light. My hope. It finally looked like it was coming. I could see a faint light far away at the horizon. My fear slowly started sinking. I was trying to fight back at the darkness with all my might. But soon, the faint light was covered. I soon realised that it was an eclipse. My ray of hope was covered. Very soon, I sank back into the horridly chilly darkness. It started consuming me from within like a worm in an apple. I am sinking. Without a life jacket. It all feels like i am falling into a bottomless pit. But still. I wait. I wait for the Sun to move away from the moon. I wait for my light to rescue me. To prove that my hope was strong.

Life is ups and downs. You do enjoy the light. But you do realise that soon, there will be darkness again. In this fight between darkness and light, there is no winner. There is only fear and hope. Its just how you take it.
