If this hibernation is not forever
then surely, I cannot go on.
If the blackness will disappear
and leave me with the open light
then surely, it all ends here.

When my door is broken down
and my peace stripped away,
then surely, it is too late.

If I am forced to open my eyes
and face this world,
then I vow to face it head on
and live.
For all though it may seem like I am dead,
it surely, does not mean
that life too.

The author's comments:
I wrote this when I was struggling with a lot to cope with in my life: stress, pressure etc. Hopefully people can see that it's not always the end of the world.
