Darkness

A world wherein the we are shrouded in darkness
a beautiful world where we are all alone
no one to save us
no one could help anybody.

They say light is more powerful than dark
but without darkness we cannot have light
even though light outshines darkness
darkness will always consume light at the end of the day.

We may have more productive outcomes while under light
it is when in the night that we can show pure true selves
the true wretched people we really are
which we just hide under a shroud of light we call our faces.

In the end at the very bottom of our soul
and very deep in our minds
we still have that twisted broken selves hidden
in fear that we might hurt our loved ones if we release it.
