Middle of The Night
captured by royel, fashion district, 2024
“in the depths of night, when stars do gleam,
we toil and study, pursuing our dream.
forty hours and more, a weary load,
responsibilities piled high on this road.
'tis in these darkest hours, we find,
our strength, our will, our troubled mind.
for growth, it blooms not in the light,
but in the struggles of the night.
be thy own hero, silent and true,
for in the end, 'tis only you
who can rise above the daily strife,
and carve the path to a better life.
so work and learn, embrace the pain,
for in the darkness, we shall gain.
and when the dawn at last appears,
thou shalt emerge, beyond thy peers.”
