to counter the dark

whispers and lies

minds let rise

small things they be

yet more damaging be

than a blade tearing

where can there be hope?

a voice to counter the little things

threatening to tear asunder

all that you are

and are to become

loneliness counters praise

insecurity removes wits

fear paralizes body and strengh

shadows tear at the light

unaware of hidden champions

love to counter fear

peace to clear insecurity's haze

and friends to help keep loneliness away

 

they are few and not many can give them

but to find those that can stem

darkness's power

look to those that stand beside you

also weathering darkness's might

with power of light
