A Conflict

Deep darkness fears me at night, 
Sable thoughts surround me tight, 
Run I to the dark corners to escape, 
Wrestle against inner self and fight, 
The conflicting struggle continues, 
Till I exhaust and lose the might, 
The next day recovers me again, 
And the night brings the same plight.
