What is lurking?
We use light to chase away the shadows
hoping to protect ourselves from the unknown.
Little do we know that hiding from them
only allows them to become fully grown.
We give them the gift of hiding,
using our light to keep them at bay.
We sit in ignorance.
Little did we know there is a high price to pay.
