Joseph Rambeaut - Darkness Inside

The darkness lay dormant inside me,
quiet and patient,
it sits and it waits.
It waits for a time
when it can be released
it waits for a time
when it can be free.
Could it be now?
or Could it be later?
Who knows.....
who can predict
when at last
it will be free.
But how do you know?
that its not already free,
that it doesnt lay dormant
but it thrives within me.
Is there a darkness in you~
does it lay waiting inside
or do you run from it,
do you try to hide.
Try as you might
there is NO escape
there is only acceptance,
for that is your fate,
you must live with the darkness
until your final days.

Joseph Rambeaut
