Night and Morning
The light created the dark.
I fear it.
Nothing can get me, but my imagination.
Why am I afraid?
It is just the shadow of a reflection
There’s no reason to fear the dark
The light creates it
I walk under the moon glow
Half-light, Half-dark
On the dark side I see shadows and destruction
On the light theirs is a picturesque kingdom with angels
I fight to get free
In the end I will be relentless until the time comes
One shall conquer my body
I pray for it to be all over
And for this fight to end to end my pain and sorrows.
I fear it.

On the light theirs is a picturesque kingdom with angels
I fight to get free
In the end I will be relentless until the time comes
One shall conquer my body

And for this fight to end to end my pain and sorrows.

the structure of Fidel's poem reinforced the emotion he was conveying
This poem pushes its way into the dark corners of my consciousness. It makes me aware of the emotional fears we all possess to some degree or other.

I love the way you demonstrated the conflict you feel. Lines like "Why am I afraid?" showed how your thoughts about the light and dark continually change.
That is quite a poem Fidel! Do like to write poetry?
