Bhavya Kaman - Staring into Darkness

Staring into darkness
What do my eyes behold?
A glimpse into the world
Of many secrets untold.

Staring into darkness
Waiting for a beam to shine
As I lie in shadows
In this world of mine.

Staring into darkness
Weary, lost and alone
Struggling to discover myself,
My life, my own.

Staring into darkness
Wanting to be free;
For the first time in my life
I can clearly see.

Staring into darkness
Dispelling what I doubt;
For the one within me is greater
Than the one without.

Staring into darkness
My vanquished spirit is revived,
The fire is rekindled
And I'm no longer staring into darkness.

Bhavya Kaman
