Fear shakes me as I look at this creature, Staring at me through the darkness, A grey smoke blurs my sight, I mumble prayers like a preacher. I shut my eyes, as does a pigeon, It scrapes its claws, on the bare ground. I peek through the slits of my eyelids, Still there - now theres a legion! I turn my back and run, I can hear them chasing me, Rustling through the dead of silence, I stop, only to come undone! Am I dead? I see a light. I turn, I face them now. The light lingers and I hold on, Closer I walk, with all my might. I see them. They see me. My failures, my rage, my darkness. The distance, the pessimism, the void. Fears in their multitude existence. Closer , closer, closer I get, I fear the fears no more, For they exist, as does the light, Shining like an auroral net. Catch them, bind them, Then I set it free. Now I bind me, within me. And fill my heart with divine glee. I see a monster now and then, I see it for what it is, I know it can be tamed to my will, For there exists a light within. My light shines brighter, as the darkness grows. The two exist coherently - For what is, is!

I see a monster!
Fear shakes me as I look at this creature, Staring at me through the darkness, A grey smoke blurs my sight, I mumble prayers like a preacher. I shut my eyes, as does a pigeon, It scrapes its claws, on the bare ground. I peek through the slits of my eyelids, Still there - now theres a legion! I turn my back and run, I can hear them chasing me, Rustling through the dead of silence, I stop, only to come undone! Am I dead? I see a light. I turn, I face them now. The light lingers and I hold on, Closer I walk, with all my might. I see them. They see me. My failures, my rage, my darkness. The distance, the pessimism, the void. Fears in their multitude existence. Closer , closer, closer I get, I fear the fears no more, For they exist, as does the light, Shining like an auroral net. Catch them, bind them, Then I set it free. Now I bind me, within me. And fill my heart with divine glee. I see a monster now and then, I see it for what it is, I know it can be tamed to my will, For there exists a light within. My light shines brighter, as the darkness grows. The two exist coherently - For what is, is!
Clearing the mess in your head to see the light. Facing your fears and knowing that they exist!
