The dark periods in our lives can seem more than the light. We face rejection, difficulties, or being ignored when it should count.
But it’s good to remember that the sun, much like a wheel of fortune, moves in cycles. So dark periods never last forever, and we have the strength to handle them when they come.

Warm rays of light forgotten-

Barren Soil
Rejection is not easy to swallow. It plants the seed of doubt and often, resentment., causing a loss of confidence. But more often than not, a shake up is a time of new possibilities that are hard to appreciate at the time. It is a chance to start over, but hard to accept when there is anxiety.

you such an amazing writer👌
Love this ❤️ it reminds of my favorite song from Annie.
But that's the thing, if I have to experience the dark to experience the light, then I don't even wanna experience the light, lol. Loved your poem!
I really appreciate the hopeful message in this poem. It’s a great reminder that tough times are temporary, and the light will always return. Beautifully written!
Beautiful!
Lovely!
Another beauty, Michelle.
Deep and beautiful, Michelle!
