In Darkness The Light

The sunshine has meant the world to me,
But for reasons that you can not see,
The darkness has meant much more,
My youth was spent romanticising of the ancient lore.

There in darkness reside many evils but also magic too.
Without them, I might not discover what only masters knew.
My power can't be taken. It's not a bobble or a thing.
Outwardly, you may not guess what I've been mastering.

For in the darkness where shadows loom, I first discovered light.
This began when I was six, and demons visited one night.
They ravaged at my mother, and she has cried for thirty years.
It's been so long the time that passed dried up all my tears.

They call it schizophrenia,  but I argue they're not right.
It's demons and it's angels that have come to teach me fright.
With them though, my strength has grown, and there's little that I fear.
I will be the bravest when the end of world is near.

I have learned my strength reaches far beyond,
And it is my will alone of which I am so fond.
With it I have the power to shape the future of my dreams,
The end is not the end although that's what it seems.
