In dark believe we
With no doubts.
The only thing
We know for sure -
It’s inhabited by all kinds
Of creatures big and small.
The scariest ones
Are masked the best.
Our Fear is the biggest.
You wouldn’t want to meet him
In the night, alone,
Just you and it.
Lying down, all torn up
By inner thoughts
Constrained by his strength,
You look at its moves
So smooth and inevitable,
You hear its voice
Whispering from everywhere,
You feel its grazes
Right on your face,
No place you can hide,
No place to run of.
It’s already inside -
In your mind, in your eyes,
In your body, in your heart.
You’re full of it
Right in your viscera
You know you are caught:
Tightly bounded
With it,
All tied up.
By the darkest creature of all -
Your own Fear.
Give in, submit.
There is no win for you.
Just lie, choking
From his powerful stench,
Obediently waiting for sun
To come and free you.
