In the Darkness

Prose Poetry

When the sun goes down and the night arrives 
remember to look to the stars 
and gaze upon their beauty. 
Realize that the night sky is a reflection 
of all the souls that exist in the cosmos. 
And in life we all go through times 
when the sun sets on us 
and we are left in the dark. 
We might feel as though 
we'll never see light again, 
but eventually we will. 
So I promise you this: 
you don't go unnoticed 
when you're in darkness.
But when you find yourself 
in the dark use that chance 
to show off how brightly you can shine. 
For there is a light that resides in each of us 
and it shines brightest in the dark.
