Darkness Waits

darkness lies in wait,
in its shell of light,
waiting paitiently,
for its prison to break,
that one day,
that a crack will appear,
and the dark shall shine out,
iluminating the world,
smothing the blinding light,
so that we may see our selves,
see who we are and all others,
no longer able to hide,
in someone elses shadow,
