A Ray of Sunshine

Black clouds surrounded me

Darkness was all I could see

Hope had drained away

The future looked bleak and grey


I was so afraid

Of being inadequate

Of being lonely endlessly

From my life, I wanted to flee


But then came a ray of sunshine

Emerging from the skyline

Hope slowly grew inside me

I had newfound clarity


I found true friends

Left behind the pretends

Saw my true reflection

And it gave me a confession


It'd been a dark place

With no one to embrace

But there's nothing we can't face

No matter the case


The sun rose, shining bright

Filling my world with light

The summer sky, clear and blue

The darkness I had overthrew

I wrote this poem when I was coming out of a very dark time in my life. Slowly, my mental health got better, and it was like being reborn, I could see all the good things in my life, the future was full of dreams rather than emptiness. I felt confident in myself, I felt happy. It didn't last very long, in a couple months I was dragged back to earth, but I'll never forget those few weeks I spent in the clouds
