Eternal Struggles

My soul is now a battleground
A thousand armies bugles sound
I wonder just who will succeed
Will the light or darkness bleed?

Bathed in ethereal light
I'm drawn towards all that is right
Angels fascinate with what they do
Something I can aspire to
I feel a longing, to help and save
I like to think I can be brave
But can I truly ever withstand
The heaviness of harsh hands?
My gravest weakness is my strength
I've thought upon this at great length
Love overpowers, it's greater than I
It makes me weaker, like I could cry
When my heart is broken
A thousand words are left unspoken

So I retreat into the dark
Where the angels daren't hark
Where I can find a place to hide
From the demons deep inside
Trouble is they're all around
I'm trapped now, can't make a sound
Terrified of the rising sun
My nightmare has just begun
At least in darkness I can't see
Exactly what is haunting me
The night can kill but also protect
As long as you treat it with respect
But once again I'm left heartbroken
A thousand words are left unspoken

It's seems for safety it is best
If to stay in grey I do request
A mixture of the dark and light
That hazy time, the fall of night
Or the dawning of the day
That should keep my monsters away
