Darkness Inside

There is darkness in  me
But also there is light.
And the demons in my mind;
The corners from which they stare.
These shadows that clearly see,
In this empty homesick night.
Here the fear, its own kind,
Convinces me they aren’t there.
A shining brightness then escapes,
A hope beyond contagious misery.
“There can be no light without the dark.”, a lie.
One I find the strength to refuse.
This is when the earth shakes,
When one clears his eyes to see.
A time when heaven seldom sighs,
A bit of faith found, I’m able to reuse.
