Standing In the Dark So Long

Standing in the dark for so long

Feeling the emotions,yet so strong

To defy the dark,to resist its evil

To fight the binding chains so cruel

To be the champ against all odds

Finally able to silence the barking dogs

Reaching myself out to that impossible dream

No matter what the restrictions,where the stream

Being that man only seems like second nature

Though there is nothing but me to nurture

So despite the abrasions and fears,I won't quit

Yeah it matters to stick when you get the hardest hit



So here it goes,my first poem.Tell me how it was and what could be done to shape it further.Thanks!
