Rising Through the Darkness: Finding Hope in the Toughest Times

The Courage to Keep Going, Even When Life Feels Overwhelming

By Yuvaraj RPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

When life feels heavy, and hope fades away,

And the sun seems to hide behind the gray,

When every step is a struggle, and every breath a sigh,

And it feels like there's no end to the darkness, no light in the sky.

In these moments, we feel so small,

As if we're drowning, in a sea that's tall,

Our dreams shattered, our hearts broken,

And the weight of the world leaves us with a token.

But even in the darkest hour, there's a glimmer of hope,

A flicker of light, a way to cope,

A hand to hold, a shoulder to cry,

And the courage to rise, to give life another try.

For every storm, must come to an end,

And every tear, must find a mend,

And in the toughest time of life,

We find the strength to survive.

We learn to lean on those we love,

To find solace in the things above,

To cherish each moment, each breath we take,

And to hold on, to never break.

So even when life feels heavy, and hope fades away,

And the sun seems to hide behind the gray,

We know that we're not alone in this strife,

For we have the power to rise and embrace life.
