There are times when life gets heavy when each breath is a challenge and just when you overcome, another one approaches with your wounds fresh and far too deep to heal it takes all you have just to take in that next breath.
The troubles outside and the trouble within seem like they're working together to break me down
How is it that my weaknesses are their strengths, my deepest secrets are common knowledge and my failures are on display for all to see.
My enemies know my wounds and do their best to exploit them they know my home and attempt to ambush me in my rest, they follow me and wait until I am vulnerable and alone.
They believe that if they surround me in darkness that I will fall in fear but they don't know of the light within.
Those blinded by the darkness can never see the break of dawn for their eyes are gouged out by greed and their evil deeds which temporarily feed their needs.
But I see the light I grasp and hold for dear life because it also knows my weaknesses it's seen my faults and my deepest secrets
the light stays close keeping me warm healing my wounds and caring for my pain unlike the darkness who's cold claws peirce my heart
The light is in me and the darkness can never reach it
