In Deepest Darkness

In deepest darkness, lies the light, That you were burdened to protect. To shield from sorrow and delight, And all you might ever expect. Beneath the surface, boils the rage, That once was patience of the greatest kind. You can't escape the confines of your cage, When they start deep within your mind. You start to hope, and then you fall, Then you rise only to deceive. That you are not afraid at all, And you' re still willing to believe. Nothing seems likely to change, No one's really going to notice. You find it's increasingly strange, That you are the only one to know this.
