some will find you in tranquility
and leave you broken,
some will meet you in turmoil
and lead you to serenity

“Little Light
There is this little light within,
Her name is Hope,
And I know that as long as I can feel her there,
Just beneath my skin,
Sending her waves within the labyrinth of my mind,
She is snugly at peace within my heart,
And I have a chance.”
― Pieces: A Poetry Anthology

In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show them your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”
