the Sonnet - Facing the Sun

-Facing the Sun-

I have been in the dark, contemplating.
Left in the shadows without my own light,
Nobody has a sure understanding
That to get out of here, you have to fight.
You live and learn, laugh and play just for fun.
To live or die, this is how we all go;
We live in the heat or we dodge the sun,
We face these conditions before our foe.
Get loose from the rules, get loose from the pride,
Life is an adventure, not a kid's game;
Find your true courage as you make your stride,
The anger in you heart turns into flame.
If you go into a fight, give it your all,
Keep up your speed and try not to fail.
