Nothing Grows In the Dark

I kept many parts of myself in the dark for so long, never letting them see the light of day. I didn't want to bring them into the light, it was safer in the dark. Safer for who? I'm not sure, really. Safer for those that thought they knew me? Safer for myself so as not to allow the negative parts of myself to grow? All I know is that, just for today, I choose to let the light in. Controlled growth. If I flood myself with light, surely I'll be overwhelmed and the brilliance will scorch the newly fledged sprouts of understanding that have only begun to break through the surface.
