The Darkness Within Each Of Us

By Evan Sanders


Oh that devil inside.

Can you make yourself known? When the switch flips south and light exits the room you attack my thoughts without mercy. Your resolve and will is ideal. You drive your ambitions deep into my soul. And there I am, the monster inside playing around within me like a wrecking ball. You exist in all of my doubt about life and tear me apart the more I try to run from you.

I'm no longer going to fight.

Does it confuse you that I'm not going to fight you anymore? Does it worry you that I'm going to start embracing you with a gentle touch instead of trying to block you out? I now know that if I look directly into you without trying to block you out that I'll will win this war with you once and for all.

A lot has changed in my life.

I now understand that in darkness there can be light. I do not fear you showing up because I understand what I can do with you. I know that if I let you pass through my filter of joy that I can create something beautiful with all of the things you are trying to make me shake with. No, I will not fight you anymore. Instead, I'm going to embrace you warmly.

I am truly conscious of what you actually are and who you turned me into. I am not attempting to fool anyone anymore by showing them a grin on my face. No, I should just be myself. So I tip my cap to you for all of the times you cut me down. Now, let's take a hike and work this thing out. I would like to hear what you have to say about all the years of the past.

How proud are you? How much fun did you have? Are you pleased with your accomplishments? Maybe I can even clap to your success?

This is the beginning of something new for you and me. So let's go for a walk because I would like to hear your perspective. Let me hear you roar and quietly respond to you. You're not used to that are you? Of course not. Oh you little devil inside, I have changed so much. No more foolishness. No more fear of you.

So let's go for a walk. I would like to hear what you have to say.
