Destiny Kiff Poem
Before you leave the world tonight,
I want to tell you a story, a story about a girl who wanted to end her life. She tried to leave the world one night, but stopped when she saw this beam of light. She wrestled with her mind and remembered the life she was leaving behind. It wasn’t all daffodils and sunny skies; it was more dull and gray. But for there to be gray, there had to be light. For there to be darkness, there has to be light.
She thought for a moment: what if that little life wasn’t so dark and gray? See, on Wednesday, it was all sunny skies, but then came the clouds, so dark and gray. But then came the wind, who blew the clouds away, and the sun, well, it came back brighter the next day.
Maybe life is like the sun. Sometimes the dull and gray covers our view, but if she turns back now, maybe the sun will be out, the sky will be light, and just maybe, if she turns back now, she will find the light.
