In the Shadows, In the Light

In the shadows
In the light
I confront my fears
In the darkness of night

Every morning
Every night
I start a day
That ends in fight

Every conflict
Every fight
I crush the fears
They run and hide

But once they run
And once they hide
They rise again
Ready to fight

I tremble in fear
And prepare for the night
For next time they come
I may lose the fight…
