Fearful Things
There are fearful things
in the dark of day
that hide in shadows
pure in the light.
Hidden in blessed beings,
simple mirrors with reversed sides.
Kept from the dark
from a darkness within.
Fearful things that come to you
darkened by their hope,
taken in stride by happy circumstance
brightened by the rays of sun.
Hold from such light.
Hold from such day.
Hold from the life
that hides you away.
Take awe in the darkness-
such brave alleys
that break from the street.
Take hold of such paths:
Do they lead astray?
Find in their presence danger
excitement in the change.
For ways only differ
when fear leads to new ways.
-Matthew Koutzun
