Analysis of The Light
Christopher Reeve 1984 (St Petersburg)
The wisdom u gain with evey growing day, can not prepair u for a life full of pain. When the ones you hold closest can hurt u the most, they say hope for the future i say remember the past.
The ones who stuck beside u no matter ur sins, and the ones who turned there back when ur life was getting grim.
Lifes not ment to always go right and all we can do is look tword the light. But what do u do when that light is behind u, and ur stuck in the dark with no one around u.
Do u give up on life and stop moving forward or turn back around afraid of the unknowen. They say the light only comes after the darkest of night, and if that is so I'll continue to fight.
With the hope that some day I will find a new light. And life will get better, it will all be alright.
So if ur in the dark and feel all alone, just put ur hand out there and keep moving on.
Your light is around the next cornor all u have to do; is be brave, and strong enough to turn the next page.
