Into the Light
The
world comes crashing down on her,
Breaking into a million
pieces,
Until only darkness remains.
There is no light,
No hope,
For her to hold onto.
Happiness becomes
A
thing of the past.
She watches
And sees nothing.
She
listens
And hears nothing.
Cruel laughter rings through
her head.
Cold sneering faces float in front of her.
When
will it end?
She closes her eyes,
Trying to hide from
reality,
But, it still finds her,
Mocking her.
It
has to end!
A small light,
Brilliant in the dark.
It
grows stronger,
Brighter.
A helping hand,
A kind
smile.
The girl smiles for the first time.
Maybe,
Maybe,
It won't end,
But now it'll be better.
The
light overcomes the darkness.
Hope returns,
An anchoring
her to the world.
The shattered pieces come together.
Happiness returns.
She watches,
And sees the bright
smiles.
She listens
And hears the merry laughter.
Yes,
it'll become better.
It already has.
