Darker Sunlight (Sonnet)

They say that every coin has two sides.
True: Our lives bear its testimony.
On one hand, Life, Love and Faith resides,
On the other, Death, Pain and vile money.
Neither independent to stand alone.
The pillars of Pain support joy and mirth,
Cherished happiness melts from toil and groan,
And this duality brightens our earth.
Pure Death flows from the glaciers of life,
And the thorns of sorrow give life its glow.
Invention is made after tiring strife,
Heavens’ splendour arises from the Hell below.
                Glorious Life teaches us to stand and fight,
                And see the beauty of the Darker Sunlight.
