Two Sides

There are always two sides to every story
One that is ended with pain while the other ends in glory
The outcome is based solely on what you choose
The choices are to endure abuse but bloom something exquisite or, to nurture something sturdy and strong; which will you amuse?

Darkness has always held a special appeal
But this time you are longing for something that is real
So, cast away those deep dwelling urges
And allow yourself to revel in the beauty that emerges

For once allow yourself to revel in all that is light
Allow your soul to be doused in something wonderful and ignite
You have been diminishing the good within for far too long
Let it beam from within and right what you have made wrong

For this will be a most wondrous tale
This will be a story in which the protagonist will prevail 
No matter what the outcome may be
This is an adventure that will finally allow your light to be free
