happiness and sadness

Like a hurricane it blew me down,

tore me apart and flooded my senses.

I lost my sanity when it struck me,

as fast as a bolt of lightning,

it made me chill,

until there was nothing i could feel.

I was fathoming the deep abyss where it Left me

and realized I am one step ahead of grave.

I almost forgot everything I knew,

until I have realized there is no one I can turn to.

I needed someone to protect me,

but no one comforted me.

I felt like I'm frozen inside,

I felt nothing as if I was dumb

and later on became numb.

I am in the point of giving up

when a light struck me,

it made me think

there is still someone who cares for me,

He's the only one who understands me.

He healed my agony.

He is Jesus.

He saved me from the nothingness

and took away my emptiness.

He lifted me up from that downfall

and made me realize

there are still better things in store for me.

I have my family and my friends.

And I felt the happiness within me.

It made my sky vivid at its clearest,

no more dark clouds

bolt of lightning and deafening thunders

that used to frighten me.

All I can hear are the soft whispers of the breeze,

the sweet chirp of the birds

and my heart danced with joy.

I thought it is very impossible for me

to escape from that cage of sadness

but i was wrong

everything is up to me,

it's just a matter of choice

"to be happy or not to be"...
