I've taken steps forward
But now, I've taken more steps back.
My insecurities have returned
Releasing upon my heart a full-fledged attack.
I know I must stay calm and serene
So as to allow my esteem's return.
I need to push all it all away
So my heart its old boundaries can be relearned.
To take it one day at time causes my heart much pain
And to feel the pain's torture drives me to tears.
I have to pace myself to drive away the sting
And I have to stay steady as I vanquish my fears.
I long for the sun
For there is no warmth in the shadowy place I occupy at this time.
I get closer everyday, though
Because I can see the light and hear the calming chime.
I feel the warmth upon my skin
And the attack on my heart has ceased.
My serenity has returned; I've defeated every fear
And now finally, once again fled have the terror-causing beasts.
The sun soars upon me
All my shadows have gone away.
I've come back to myself
And my debt to my heart I have paid.

Question:
Is darkness good or bad?
I know the answer, but if you'd like you can try to answer it in a review. The person whose's answer is either correct or the most creative will have the next poem dedicated to them. I will give you all a month. Thanks.
