I wanted to get out of the cave of darkness then I saw a light. But this light, was not touched by purness. It was as dark as the cave itself. It bore sharp edges that could cut through flesh. Was this the light I was seeking or the deception of peace? Was this the answer to all my life's problem or the false hope that I would temporarily find? At last, a new light appears. It was the moon. A new path was shown for the chance of peace, happiness, liberty. Although, the light reflected from the moon revealed the the signs of a good life. The pathway was blocked by obstacles. Snakes, spiders, jagged rocks, and possible failure obscured fruitful promises. Would I or could I make it ? All I had was hope.
