Everything is Needed

by Gyu-Jeong L., grade 8

La luz

They always bring hope

Y también alegría

And makes us feel safe

La obscuridad

Makes us fear

Perdemos nuestra fé

And it’s surrounded by terror

La vida

Is what makes us live

Nos da emociones

And gives us anything

Todas son esenciales

Without darkness, there’s no light

Sin la luz, no existe la obscuridad

These two opposites need to rely on each other

La luz y la obscuridad

Is what makes life meaningful

Sin esos dos elementos

The world would just be a lifeless ground
