Darkness is Rising

A Darkness is Rising
Declare "Light be!"

Every day avenues take on a dark façade,
doors once open wide, closing perhaps forever.
Looking over our shoulders, thought we'd never.
Dark and light – lie and truth – once so clear,
but now it lurks in subtle shades of gray
ready to capture and submerge your soul.
Claustrophobic sensations on prickling spine,
paranoia now defined – footsteps are heard.
We are so close to being trapped by evil.
Where is the hope, the escape is where?
In standing bravely on the might of truth,
light overcomes darkness and sets us free.
