All alone

I stand alone on silent nights,
my scares of feelings dawn new light.
I cannot be afraid nor weep,
and at night I cannot sleep
For the demons wake in silent beds,
to pull all my pain and dread
I must stay on my chosen path
hope to outrun their gentle wraith.
Like a candle I flicker light,
shedding tears and shedding fright.
The people push me will all their might,
to hold to my dieing light.
Let go of me; i need to be free,
i need to know whats right for me.
All but your presence is unknown,
how can I make all seem alone?
it brings so much strength to stop these tears
Yet somehow your touch will wash my fears
