Darkness
In the darkness it is dormant.
It creeps over us is in the night,
Taking away that visual sense that
Many depend on in the day.
The dark is useful but mostly misleading and dangerous,
Concealing the dangers that hide in
The dark shadows of night.
And though the darkness may seem quiet
And peaceful there are those in the black shroud
That wish to commit violence upon another
And take advantage of the near blindness that
Presents itself every night.
The darkness though strong and powerful
Is always enslaved by the light of day.
As darkness can do nothing
As the first rays of sunlight come.
The light wounds and cuts away the light
Like a blade of pure gold,
Stabbing, puncturing and swiping away the shadows.
People are scared of the dark,
But it is not the dark they should be afraid of
Since dark is not bad or good.
It is the evil monsters that people should be afraid of,
The dark is only cover, it does not care if it helps good or evil.
It is not even waiting, it is just there for people
To use its invisible but visible inky blackness.
