Darkness Lies

The curtains close , darkness takes the place 
of light he reevaluates his life takes a good look
 at the man inside and he asks "who am i" and so
 his thoughts run rampant with question that only
 lead him deeper into the answer he has always feared
 but he keeps on un afraid of what is ahead until he is
 face to face to his true reflection and he sees that he
 isn't the monster he always thought he would find under
 the masks all he sees is a scared little kid who has
 spent his life in the dark so long that the light frightens
 him deeper into the fascade of lies.
