The Struggle
as night falls
and dark crawls
up to form an abyss
where every hand turns into a fist
and a small fight
turns into a struggle for life
to do what is right
or wait out for morning light
a cry in the night
sends a shiver of fright
through out the town
but they pretend there was never a sound
