Double Dare

I dare you to be real

To touch

To touch a flickering flame

The pangs

The pangs of dark delight

Don't cower

Don't cower in night fright

Don't back away just yet

From destinations set

I dare you to be proud

To dare to shout aloud

For convictions that you feel

Like sound from bells to peal

I dare you to despise

Bureaucracy and all its lies

In the void

In the void they stare

They never

They never dared to dare

I dare

I dare

I dare you

You

You

You

I dare you

You

I

I

I

I

I

I

I

I

I dare you
