Abused by Darkness

The zeal that burns inside of me,
Pulls me up to my feet.
To take a step into darkness
And beam through my burning chest.
Abused by darkness,
I am no longer afraid.

I still walk the world shining.
The light beams off my skin with zest.
Zapping darkness away.
My smile grows bigger.
Bu I am just a shadow who absorbs light.

Abused by darkness,
EnoughThat it still remains inside.
But smiling brightly,
Is one ability to brighten.
