Within You

A loosing battle

Watching night descending
The specters draw near
Like fingers inching closer
Reaching out to envelop my soul

Wondering what awaits me
Within this dusky realm
Spirits of night have awoken
Ready to claim what’s justly theirs

Waiting for your ascension
To banish the beast within
Encased in its nocturnal prison
Regrouping until let go

Worrying it’s a loosing battle
As I struggle alone
Against an internal evil
Repulsed by your light
