Icicles

Icicles -- written by Kirsten Lindsay

The shadows close around me
As I bravely fight them off.
But no matter how I struggle
The darkness doesn't stop.

It invades the space around me
Peering deep in my soul.
The darkness pierces with icicles,
Freezing my heart stone cold.

I try to hold it off,
The feelings of despair.
But as the ice takes over my body
I slowly stop to care.

No longer does it matter
What I or others feel.
The dark has taken over,
Can light begin to heal?

Light will melt the ice
That built walls around my heart.
No longer will I sit and cry
A coward in the dark.

A battle rages on inside,
A battle of light and dark.
The ice is beginning to melt,
To give me an brand new start.

The battle still goes on,
It1s a battle to last all time.
A battle of good and evil,
A battle deep down inside.
