Emotions Into Ashes

I kissed the darkness a farewell in spite
Was always there when I bed goodnight
Comfort of warmth, now tenderly out of sight
My sorrows shredded before dawn’s light.

To lose the weight of harboring fears that barricade 
 It’s time now to defuse and quell that fiery brigade 
allowing my tears to flow like a cascade  
dousing the emotional fire into embers till they fade
