For some, the world is black, white, and gray.
For some, the world may be gay.
For some, it can be hard
To find a reason to stay.
For some, the world is big.
For others, it's small.
For some, the world has
a billion people.
And for others,
there aren't many people at all.
For some, faith and love for God
Can get them through the darkest days
Some have other ways to cope.
Whatever world you live in,
It's one and the same.
Your world, my world, the world,
They all exist on the same planet
With the same name:
Earth

Darkness.
Vast darkness
That envelopes your world

Light.
Tiny light
A candle that you hold

Vast vs. Tiny
With these words alone,
Clearly vast wins

But

Darkness vs. Light
This battle
Light always win

For no matter how vast the darkness is
No matter how tiny the light is
Darkness cannot swallow light

For darkness will always depend on light
Depend on its absence

Darkness may win over you
If
Only if
You chose to put out the light that you hold

Remember
A single ray of light is still light
And a single ray of hope is still hope

No matter how dark your world may be right now
No matter how dark your world might become in the future
If you continue to hold on to that light
To your light
You will win
In this battle
Called LIFE
There will come a time in your life when you feel so down, burdened like you carry the weight of the world. When you feel that a future of darkness awaits you, you can worry, but you should never give up. Because your present carries a light and a hope called life. If the future is dark, bring that light you hold to the future and make it shine.
