During the day the side of the Earth you are on faces our local star (the Sun) which generates energy in its core by a process of nuclear fusion.

This energy escape out of the surface of the sun in the form of light and this light illuminates the sun-ward facing parts of the Earth. This makes it light during the day.

At night the part of the Earth you are on is not facing the Sun and therefore you are in the shadow of the Earth and it is dark.
