Light and Dark
The world mirrors my reflection
I see my face everywhere I look
Windows, walls, and people
All wear my pale face
I see the light and wish to hide
Shadows and darkness are my friends
Protect me from my fears
and shield me from the light
I urge to venture out
To take risks I've never known
To try to fly once more
One step forward
Two steps back
A constant tug of war
The two teams being
My stubborn brain and broken heart
