Your Light

Original poem by Joel Sydenham:

Standing in your own radiant glow, you can only see the shadows you’ve cast.

Stuck between a bright future and a dark past…

Wondering which one is really you…wondering if all you do has had a purpose? Wondering if it's all been worth, it or just worthless…

But a building will never know the strength of its own concrete, and a fire will never feel warm from its own heat. Just like you, could never see your light from your own point of view.

So I urge you to keep shining… And shine bright… Whatever that is to you…even though you’re blind to your own sight.. Because it's cold, and it's dark. And we all need your light.
