She is in the darkness.
A child reaching for light.
Her soul to young to pray..
To young to say..
Babies afraid of the dark.
She doesn't need much..
Just a pinhole of a spark.
A distant star in the galaxy...
Just enough light to keep
the demons away
They lurk in the darkest shadows..
Waiting..
To take her back.
Back to the hell
from whence she came.
She was not meant to be born.
So they wait in prey..
Waiting for the stars to fade..
These demons are apart of her..
She apart of them.
They are siblings
from another life..
Of
Emptiness..
Darkness..
Emotionalist
Nothingness
They do not know of..
love
life
hurt
shame
They know nothing
of these earthy gains..
For there is heavenly light
even in pain.
Every emotion sparks
something unseen..
Ahh, but these demons
will not let her be..
The star is fading..
The darkness comes..
She knows she is not alone..
She feels their demonic
urgency growing.
As they wait
to take her home.
She knows it is useless
to fight.
Because darkness
will always
overcome the light.
I love this write Erica. I think you know that the darkness is only a shadow of light produced to give us rest among other things,and the light itself comes in the form of many shades, but overall it always overcomes all other shades, incuding the dark, it's just a matter of knowing which phase you are in and staying strong until the light prevails,which it always will.

Erica, a wonderful tale you have written. Suspensful and as real as one can make it. But the demons you have faced are not from hell, they surrounded you in life and made it miserable. Demons are everywhere. There are at AD also. They pretend goodness with their slick oily tongues; when all the want to to is pervert lives and gain control of others to have them live under their direction. If you do not deliver what they want, then prepare for their attacks. But as Kate said, light does always overcome darkness. Choose well now that you are adult when you choose your friends. Your whole future depends on it. You wrote a stimulating article; even much more stimutating than you thought. Your friend Bill
