Rising Above the Darkness

A Poem of Resilience and Determination

By ASWESHVARAN RPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Life is but a fleeting breath,

A fleeting moment in time,

A spark that flickers, fades, and dies,

A hopeless, endless climb.

The darkness looms, the shadows creep,

The weight of pain and fear,

A never-ending cycle of despair,

A life that's far from dear.

The dreams we had, the hopes we held,

All shattered and in vain,

For in this life, there is no light,

No joy, no peace to gain.

So let us bid farewell to life,

And all that it may bring,

For in death, there is release,

And sweet eternal spring.

But let us not give up just yet,

For hope still lingers on,

Though life may seem like an endless night,

The dawn will soon be dawn.

So hold on tight and do not fear,

For strength is born in pain,

And in the struggles that we face,

We find the will to gain.

So let us rise above the dark,

And chase the light once more,

For though life may be tough and hard,

It's worth fighting for.

So let us hold on to the hope,

That tomorrow will be bright,

For in the end, it's not the end,

But just the start of fight.
