As the sun will rise with each new day, so will I.

As the moon will rise with each new night, so will I.

As the waters rise with the tide,

As the birds rise on a breeze,

As a song rises on breath,

So will I.

• JH

Even when it feels like the darkness will never end, hold onto the fact that you have come out of the other side of every dark day that has gone before this one, and you will rise from this one too.
