The Dark of Night

The Dark of Night

A Poem by jordan burger

In the dark of night my demons rise,
and arising in my heart there is a fight,
bad and evil take there sides,
I'm stuck hoping there is also some good inside,
As bad takes a stand, and evil decides to lift its hands,
One and the same, yet two different beings they remain
And than there is good inside, holding onto that ray of light,
That ray of light, knowing that the night will end and with it come the daylight,
But right now my demons are all that is in my sight,
And negativity has spread its wings and taken flight,
and self doubt had risen from the ground,
And all around me, there are mirrors, that is all I can see,
In these mirrors, I can see as these beasts and demons attempt to destroy me,
as I fight my fears, I know that hope is near,
And if I continue to hold my head high that courage will be by my side.
I'm laying here hoping sleep will come and take me away,
But i'm wide awake and its almost a brand new day.
Tonight there will be no escape.
Tonight I am losing this fight.

If you have enemies, do not let them discourage you. Do not let them overcome your own senses. You, yourself, is the only mirror that is important, because you know yourself better than them.
