The dark lurks around every corner,

watching, waiting for a time to rise,

hiding behind a mask of deceit,

preparing for the day of its reckoning.

The light is a guardian, carrying infinite wisdom,

preserving hidden secrets,

giving warmth and the feeling of protection,

defending the innocent from the dark.

Great battles have been fought over power,

but the light has triumphed over the dark,

good has won the battle against evil,

the forces of the light have the dark lying dormant.

I have yet to make my mark in these historic battles,

but I know that each day I keep the dark at bay.

My inner strength helps in each battle,

as long as everyone has hope, the light will never die.
