Hiding in the Dark

One hundred tears cried
Uncountable prayers prayed
So many sleepless nights
And yet you're still afraid
What lurks in the darkness
What hides in the corners
Underneath the shadows
And behind the counters
But will you never learn
The only one escape?
Stuck in the twilight zone
Your life is a looped tape
Everything you run from
Is a part of darkness
Wrapping yourself in it
Captivates the conscious
Intoxicate with fear
Thriving on every cringe
Fingers in the flame
Until you feel the singe
