Analysis of A little light to cope with life
The light of Day and the darkness of night are like Metaphors
For the light in our lives, but also the darkness where upset occurs
Glimpses of light are like hope through life's struggle
Just like that little light at the end of the dark tunnel
When pain is dragging you down into the darkness
Those capsules of light awaken you from inertness
They warm our hearts reiginighting our inner spark
When the light conkers the night and drives out the dark,
Its those tenderhearted times that stop us from falling apart.
The glistening stars are balls of light that fight against the night,
Like knights of the light there armour shimmers, glimmers bright
Freckles puncturing the abyss despite the blanket of the darkest eclipse,
The light of the moon pushing through it cannot be missed or simply dismissed.
The moon is like a big bright balloon surrounded by stars of all shapes and sizes
soon on the horizon the sun will burn through the darkness
as it slowly rises,
Dispersing the darkness of the night, just like the darkness that plagues your life,
The sun will rise with the brightest light, and everything will eventually be all right
Light will always shine through even on the darkest night you'll see a star or two,
No matter the pain or suffering you're experiencing look for those glimmers of hope, that's the light shimmering,
That's what will pull you through the darkest times those little glimmers of light
Some are big bold and brass others mere twinkle shooting past in the dead of night,
Finding the light in life will bring hope that even in those darkest of times
You will see, It's going to be all right
