In darkness I am fully attentive
Because I shine so bright
To sparkle is my own incentive
I must escape the night
While beholding the light which outward shines
I turn to look inside
At the core is a glimpse at brutal wars
And I on neither side
Something wells up deep within my being
A fear I can’t deny
A threat to extinguish light so freeing
‘I would be trapped’ I cry
The painful thought of darkness seeping in
To my oasis of light
My stronghold - fortress - protecting within
Will crumble at the sight
I will be left alone a shattered mess
A shell of what I was
Although the light is strong I must confess
that’s just what darkness does
