Conviction Poem by Patrick Czyz

As the mysterious shadow and gate
Widen to reveal an uncertain fate,
I will walk without forming fear.
Courage is now my warrior gear.

While clad in armor, clad in resilience,
The dark will find me and sense
What weapon I have just took.
It will try to seize me with its hardy hook.

The void will not retreat, nor will I.
The tempting tempos of quitting attack
At my back, my hardened steel back.
Bravery is the book I swear by.

The way out is just one step away.
Yet this one thought shall not sway
My most rugged and ardent armor.
I am unbreakable is what I say.
