The Gift Hidden In the Dark Ca

We live to absolve the sins of the past.
To assuage the guilt of the hurt we caused.
When appetency overrides wisdom.
How atrocious is the self when centered.
And evils allure tempts the unwary.
When life goes awry and you're all alone.
The anguish of it makes you swear out loud.
Yet difficult times can be auspicious.
With a little luck you can make it big.
If you find the gift hidden in the dark!
