In the darkness
Of despair
One can lay down
Live in the nothing
Or
One can reach out
Find the switch and flip it
Filling the room
With the light of hope
Tag: the future
As change engulfed her
Fear flooded to the surface
Trust calmed the fierce tides
I am a writer. Therefore, I am not sane. -Edgar Allan Poe
