The Light of Sorrow

If I am not so rich in having lots of joy and fun 
Then I must be rich as I have in plenty 
Sorrow and grief 

Let them come 
I fear not as I have made them friends 
And living amicably for long 

 If I do not have delight
 Then, what is that to life 
 I have enough light of sorrow
Any layers of darkness to pierce through .

With the help of their weight 
 I dive into an un-fathomable deep
And challenge the sun rays  
When I fly on their golden wings 
 
If I have no joy
Then, what is that to life 
As I make a feast out of sorrow and grief which 
I have in abundance to enjoy,
