It sounds like the dawn of silence
It feels like the midnight breeze
It looks like the starless sky
It’s cold like a winter’s night
You stand surrounded by it
And you feel the coldness arise
You ask yourself
Am I losing my grip on the light?
You stand with your thoughts
Between light and dark
The sane part of you
Wants to reach for the light
But the confused part of you
Wants to be succumbed by the dark
And as you peer at the sunlight
You can feel the darkness behind you
You remember the things you’ve done
All the secrets you’ve left behind
All I can say
Is to never forget your darkness
But always strive on for the light

Very good poem. I find I must agree with your message here. We must embrace our dark parts even as we try to attain the light. It was a good real world kind of example to my prompt. Good luck to you.
