Keep at bay By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
Light the candle, when its dark.
Light the candle, make a mark.
Keep the monster within at bay,
Come right in, go all the way.
The demon's near, it isn't clear.
As to why it's here, for it feeds off fear.
"Im not afraid. To be made-
a fool, a tool
Because that's O-K.
I see your claws, i see your teeth,
I See the weak ones, the ones you seek.
Im not the one, the one you will eat,
instead i smile, you're the one i can reap.
Ill take your claws, Ill take your teeth,
Ill take your fur, shave you like sheep.
now its dark, i hide in the shadows
i became the thing i despised the most.
I guess you could say, im your new host.
But get this clear, Im not a tool
Ill expose your fear
You're a fool
Too bad
I never lit the candle when it was dark.
im in the dark, I left the mark.
