In the darkness of the night A secret evil travels to kill beautiful things It leeches on like a parasite Causing the qualities most valued to become extinct But no matter how long the night The sun will always rise But still in the shadows The secret evil can hide (And even in the daylight I live in constant fear. That the secret evil will again come too near.)
Reason for writing:
A cry of defeat against the evils of this world. Despite defeat, hope still coexists with fear.
Birth sign: Virgo
