Embracing the Anju

The day is born anew,
Bringing with it second chances and fresh starts,
Honey-hued rays of sun dance across my skin,
Warming me? deep within.

Worry and guilt are no more,
Chased away by the mighty golden orb,
The fresh spring air fills my lungs,
And? I am happy.

But all too soon the evil comes,
Always lurking, always hiding,
In the shadows it follows me,
But? I do not run.

It senses my hesitation, and comes,
Too fast for human eyes,
It comes and It comes,
Here... I am here.

I feel the edges of evil sink in,
Spreading easily along my skin,
I want to cry out, to run,
But? I stay, waiting.

The evil enters me,
And I embrace it readily,
To fight is to resist,
Now? I am finished with that.

It envelopes me, fills me,
Until I can think of no more,
The Anju is here,
And? I am happy.
