Afraid of the darkness?
What’s lurking behind,
beyond and beneath;
out of sight, out of mind?
Would you welcome the light?
ever so gently, at first.
No sudden explosions
or frightening outbursts.
Imprisoned in the shadows,
loud clock marking time.
Terrified to step forward,
to let your light shine.
Could you release the lock,
crack open the door?
Trust the truth that emerges,
all thoughts ignore.
Know that hiding
comes at a cost.
Painful choice to remain
forever lost.
And so in this moment,
an invitation
to ask yourself -
if not now,
when?
