Literature Text

Sometimes, it takes a while for the sun to rise
First, the darkness will come
You will cry out
For someone
Anyone
To be there for you in your time of need
You will walk among monsters
Nightmares and repressions that have haunted you
As they haunt us all
Waiting in the darkness of our minds to be let loose
You will need to claw for life
Cling on to the last portion of sanity
That kept you from pulling the trigger
Or slitting your wrists
It's the voice in your head
Sometimes it's a good thing to have
Apart from the constant reminders
Reminding you what a disgrace you are
Cling on to that voice
As it kills you inside
It's what you must do
In the darkness
Eventually
You will see light
You will come to see someone
Caring for you
It may take years
Or decades
Be patient
You may not be the person you once were
Fear has made you stronger
Anger has kept you going
Depression has kept you human
Not entirely
But...recognizably
Claw for it
Fight for the life
You sometimes regret
Be patient
Sometimes, it takes a while for the sun to rise
I apologize for the incredibly long absence... Life has been hectic these past few weeks.
