When there is darkness ...

The tendrils of my mind
They grab and they claw
Always reaching in
Please feed me more

The well for storing emotions
Flows deep inside
Where nobody can see
The darkness that I hide

Fear forever rising
Seeping from every pore
Darkness is festering
Rotten to the core

The heart whispers gently
Look again and see
Darkness turns to shadows
When you place them next to me

We all have our darkness
We all have our light
Fear feeds the darkness
Understanding feeds the light
