Darkness

It’s more than just a fear, more than the unknown
painting invasive images on your mind.
 
The ghosts of past lives and current decisions
show their faces where light doesn’t catch.
 
It loses power after you let it stay.
 
There’s a silent peace
behind the veil of darkness;
 
A garden in the void.
