The Monarch

 

Self-captured

 

The darkness is bleak, blinding and ignorant,

Unfazed, into a twitching facade,

Ascending from its throne of virtuous indifference,

Catching up to you with every step, empty-jawed.

 

Take the lead, put your best foot behind,

Have your back facing the world ahead,

You must always trust yourself more,

Even if the shadows resemble every speck of you.
