The hallway of darkness
will eventually lead you
to the light
but still,
it depends
on the door you take
and the battles you fight
Choices
How confusing
when darkness sets in.
Decisions
How blinding
when you see the light from a far.
Perceptions
How bizarre
when your heart is at war.

Just Follow The Light and It Will Be All Right

Without darkness you would not be able to see the light. It is like the stars in the sky you cannot see all during the day except for one star the rest illuminated on a black canvass

Oh Joel so much Talent here as usual. It is sometimes hard even when one makes some choices, to follow through to the end helas. Ever heard of the saying ‘the night is longest just before the break of dawn’. Imagine how sleep is usually just when you have to get up? I love this poem of yours

Beautiful work! It is true that there is always light to be found at the end of the tunnel, but it is choices that make the journey through, powerful!

Thanks PD for sharing your beautiful thought.
Yes, the journey no matter where it leads to will always give us light. We learned from our experiences, good or bad, and that lesson will serves as the light (our guide) to our next journey.
I believe that light is always around us, it is within us and CAN BE US.
Sometimes we are not aware that we serve as the light or a candle to other people during their darkest hour.
Have a lovely weekend PD. Thanks for dropping by.

I’ve been following you for a couple of years now, and you’re definitely on a growing curve as a poet, so I’m surprised this is from 2015: it’s very sophisticated in both form and message.
