A Diffidence
It creeps, it seeps,
And everywhere,
It buries doubts down deep.
It churns, it burns,
And in its grip,
A man cannot discern:
If land or sea,
Or sun or sky,
Can hear his loudest plea.
It cries, it flies,
And where it goes,
A broken body lies.
It crawls, it falls,
And those it meets,
They suffer most of all.
But those who fight
The secret wars,
Can raise the growing light.
