"The Light in the Darkness"

by Dustin James Yoe

I wake up at the crack of dawn
As I walk to my destination I see a glimmer and am instnatly drawn

To your eyes that are emitting the light
But there are too many shadows from the night

Keeping me away, holding me in the dark.
And the pain of bieng held back, leaves a mark,

On my lonely cold soul,
Burning, like a singeing coal.

Then I feel the warmth, of your beaming smile
I end up feeling so guilty like I am on trial.


Why do I sit and do nothing?
Too afraid of being hurt of something?

The throbbing is so great I cannot even mention.
The pressure builds without a release leaving only tention.

The end of the day is near
And i have done nothing but cower in fear.
