Light and Dark

There’s dark
and there’s light.
Both, in equal proportions
For, the universe
needs balance.
How’d you appreciate
the better,
if you haven’t seen the worst?
how’d you know what’s for you,
if you do not know
what’s not?

You are here
by choice.
To experience both
the light and
the dark.
That’s how
it is planned.

Slave, you say, of destiny?
No.
For you have the choice
to create light even within
the darkest of moments
or feel dark
even in a street full of lights.

Choice, my friend
makes you powerful.
Choose wisely.
