When you want to feel the light
but the darkness won’t leave
When you want to feel joy
but the sorrow wont leave
When you want to feel healthy
but the pain wont leave
When the battle feels never ending
but you glimpse victory
It pushes you on to fight a little harder
When confusion is a constant state
but you glimpse clarity
It pushes you on to fight a little harder
When overwhelming sadness has you tightly in its grip
but you glimpse joy
On and on it pushes you
To fight a little harder
When you look at your life, your family, spouse, babies, pets
You realise that joy and light are already all around you
So on the dark, sorrowful, confused days
Maybe try not to fight so hard
Accept that we wouldn’t know light if we didn’t know darkness
What is joy if we don’t feel sorrow
If we didn’t feel sadness neither would we feel happiness
Work through the confusion and clarity can be found
Listen to the pain and hear what it tells you
It’s the body saying please
Please listen to me
Stop the fight I say
Just be
Take regular moments to just really see 🙏🏼
