Keep On Trying Poem by Devon Sherman

There comes a time in life,
Where all you ever wanna do is cry.
There comes a time in life,
Where all you ever wanna do is die.

And life threatens to steal away
Every shining ray of light
Tears the wind away
And replaces it with spite

No matter how bright,
No matter how far,
There will always be light.

Like the breath before dying,
And the tear before crying.
Something stops giving,
And someone stops trying.
Darkness is merely the absence of light,
And light is merely an obstruction of dark.

You may be having one of the darkest days
But dark only means light was once there
And if light is a cycle
Then hope is the trigger
And your strength will keep on growing bigger.

So stay strong,
Courage is your friend.
Let strength gain rigor,
And weakness stay dead.
