The Heart, The Light

Going against your heart
a path to the world of dark
Strangled by thoughts swirling in your head
convincing yourself that all is OK
Falling down drifting away
cries of help emanate from within
Catching a glimpse of your light, you cling to it
letting go as it floods your being
A background battle rages
Trusting your heart to conquer your demons
they retreat as the light offers rest bite
Darkness, a distant dream with an evil grin
until it rises to fight again
