Late night - Light Hope

The night is dark, the stars alight,
Your mind races through the hours of the night,
But rest won't come, the hours tick on,
And the sands of time keep slipping gone.

You long to drift into your sweetest dreams,
But your heart won't let you slip through the seams,
Anxiety fills every thought and pore,
A madness you can't ignore.

But hold on tight, my dear one,
For though the darkness seems undone,
The light is still within your reach,
And the answers to your questions to teach.

The struggles you face, the game they call chess,
Can wear you down and leave you in distress,
But you have the power to rise again,
To find the beauty and the wisdom within.

No need to know all the answers or feel secure,
Just keep walking on and keep yourself pure,
With each step forward, the path will be clear,
And the light will guide you, it's always near.

So get up, stand up, with your chin up and smile,
The decision is yours, to walk that extra mile,
And know that with each step you take,
You'll find the strength to overcome and make it.
