One Small Spark

I'm running,
Running away from an unknown fear,
I cannot escape this fading forest darkening my world,

This fear I feel within me is inescapable,
New and terrifyingly real,
It is slowly killing me,
Tearing at my insides.

My world is painfully turning black and cold,
There is no way to find hope,
The teeth of the night are slowly eating away at my soul.

But I will not die,
I will stand and fight,
Be strong and force the hope and warmth to come back.

Light a new spark and start a better life,
Watch that spark turn into a flame,
A flame that will one day burn down this dark forest and reveal the sky.

So don't worry,
You can win against the darkness within.
