it surrounds us

every minute of everyday
pulling us in every direction

changing our minds


our hearts



and mostly our souls
through everything we go through

one thing remains the same

we are still breathing


we may stop breathing emotionally many times



but our bodies don't stop




its there for us when others aren't
keeping us from killing ourselves

destroying everything we own


demolishing all that we are
we become good

amazing


happy



truly happy
living in the light
for some...it's all they ever know

or most of what they know
for the minority

we suffer


suffocating in our own tears



becoming lost




shattered





broken






dying from the dark
hoping to be brought out of our misery

our bodies keep us going


but its the light in the world



the light in one




that save us





reminding us we aren't alone

there is hope


we matter



we are needed...
we move into light and dark

taking turns


switching off



jumping into the vast unknown




trying to stay alive





trying to save a life
because after all thats what life is...
the suffering

joyous


insanity



of light and dark...
