Life..

Life..

A Poem by Nicholas Antonio Young
"

Hey guys. It's been ages since I've posted anything on here. I'm still alive haha. But yeah. I just felt like posting this. It's not quite a poem, just some thoughts I felt the need to share.

"
The sun rises and illuminates everything, so the beauty of this world can be seen so clearly around us. And when the sun goes down, it seems the world becomes darker, yet only when the sun goes down, does it allow us to see the light of the stars illuminating the darkness above us. Life is a lot like that. Life is full of beautiful things, but even when it seems darkness is around us, only then we are able to see beauty we, and others wouldn't normally be able to without the absence of the light we always see directly in front of us. Life is a cycle of gain and loss, of joy and pain. But through the pain and loss we can learn to find our own joy, and learn lessons that we never could have without experiencing that pain. We can always look ahead, and if we let ourselves we can always see the light in front of us no matter how much darkness is surrounding us. So don't cover your eyes. Open them, don't be afraid, and seek and let yourself see the beauty around you.
