The sun will rise.


Everything was dark around me. The night was so dark that it was not possible to make out anything. The stars forgot to shine. The moon was masked by the clouds. I was scared. I was alone. I needed a shoulder to comfort me, to let me cry. I looked around frantically, wanting to see someone, anyone. Nobody was there. I lost faith in everything around me. I cuddled into a ball in the corner of the road and tried to hide myself, cover myself. Sleep wouldn’t come. The shoulders that I badly needed never came and cuddled up next to me. A feeling of restlessness and uncertainty took over me. The world had given up on me.

It was then that I saw a small light, very far, very dull, but definitely a light, beginning to appear in the horizon. It slowly emerged out, magnificent and beautiful in its appearance. It gave me confidence. It gave me strength. It gave me faith.

The sun rose. World was enveloped in brightness. Everything was okay.

The sun will rise. The sun always rises, no matter what.

  1. You always have a shoulder here if you need, okay? :)
    I know the feeling. And I know it sucks. But I guess today I truly realized how fortunate I'm to have friends. Quoting Toby Cavanaugh 'That's the best part of friends. They are not your family. They accept you as you are.'

    I love you and will be there with you in the pursuit for sunlight.
    Very well written.

    I remain, your biggest fan. <3
