Sunlight and Shadows


In Pursuit

You haunt me from

The shadows. You’re always just

Around the corner waiting

For the moment of vulnerability, of

Darkness. To descend.

I fall

Into the circling spiral of the past.

To carry again the excruciating

Weight, the hauntedness, the

Helplessness, the lies,

Of you, Guilt.

You try to suffocate me

In failure, in fear. I fight.

I will win. I will not give in.

I take control.
