The Cold Light of Day

Even as the cold light of dawn breaks over the horizon, I shudder at the thought of the darkness inside...the poison. Even as the day gets progressively warm, I shiver at the chill, at the thought of the storm, the storm that's raging inside. Even as we speak, I can hear it... the cackles of a witch, even I have to admit. I'm sorry...I wish I could say, as in the cold light of day, it dawns on me that I was wrong. *to Maria
