I have a higher and grander expectation of life than average and everyday, but I am a realist and understand that life is 90% mediocre and 10% amazing; I can lie to myself, living as ignorance is bliss, but Instead, I choose to enjoy every bit grand or low.

Spark!


Just when the darkness seems to be at its peak it gets darker,
Just as I believe that I can bear it no longer,
Light appears,
How dare that light appear and give me hope,
When I know it will fade away into the darkness once again,
Leaving me,
I,
Alone,
How dare it!
As if it in its haughty hope holds the answers men have sought after for years,
Why fight the despair,
Isn’t it what makes sense,
No,
Each time that light appears,
I realize just once more,
How much I want to see it again.
