Old man

Where in the darkness lies my sanity 
Old man said to look inside of me 
Ha! A well intention suggestion 
But surely you can't be serious 
Old man 
It's inside that frightens me 
For that is where the grim dwells 
Attempting to navigate those caverns 
Leaves most delirious 
Old man where do you get the nerve 
Teaching lesson's you've failed yourself 
For you were young once 
Before you attempted to look within 
Before you were taken by the grim.
