Darkness

Most of us fear darkness.
But I prefer to see past it all.
They run away from the monsters.

But none questions the monster's big fall.
Darkness was once light.
And the monster was once human.

I know people try to run away.
Instead of analyzing or understanding any day.
The darkness has its shadows,alluring.

But I know there's beauty inside.
The past,the sadness alluring.
Of what the darkness is inside.

Even darkness  was once light.
That used to protect their loved ones and fight.
A monster was once a human being.

Who had their one big fall.
A monster could  be deceiving.
As you slowly understand more and more.

And I know your first reaction is fear.
But do you ever wonder why did the monster shed a tear?
Inside the core of darkness is light.

The one ,that gives us will to fight.
Inside a monster is  a human being.
That could not escape fate,fleeing.

Beauty is in the darkest of all.
If you ask me,search for the one's big fall.
I would pick up the book and sit on my bed.

And despite the cover,I begin to read.
Now I know darkness was once light.
And monster was a human that could not fight.

Usually darkness is a terrifying sight for some.
I understand it all.
But you really need to wonder,what was its one big fall?

Like a dark night has starry skies.
A monster used to endure many fights.
The stars at a dark night allure our sights.

And scars are battle scars you get in fights.
Even a monster has some kindness.
And beauty,comfort could be found in silent darkness.

That's why you never judge a book by its cover.
You must remember,nobody is perfect.
And so am I.

If we could just focus on the positive aspects,we'll begin to fly.
One may be touch starved,broken.
But is a soul,as kind as can be.

One may seem unusual.
Be their friend and set them free.
Sometimes,looks can be deceiving.

Don't judge by the outer shell.
Because when you get to know them,you'll feel swell.
When I was younger, I wasn't accepted well.

But I met people who broke me out of my outer shell.
So don't judge a book by its cover.
Don't judge darkness by allure.

Don't judge a monster by their power.
Because they might be a graceful,blooming flower.

Author's Note
A poem about the beauty of the darkest of all.
""They say darkness seeks danger.
They say the monster hides behind a hanger.
But if you just look deep inside.
You'll feel swell,filled with pride.""
