we fall in love
with the darkness
and the way it
smothers
all the cracks
in our skin.
we're afraid that
if we stand
under the graze
of the light's touch
for a little too long,
the cracks will split open
and everything
we've worked so hard
to conceal
will spill out.
sometimes,
this is just
what we need—
to let the light
drive away
the darkness
within.
