Abysmal king
King of darkness
Prisoner of light.
He steps lightly,
fearing he will be heard
and his terrestrial kingdom
filled with light.

To be nobody but yourself in a world that is trying it's hardest every night and day to change you into everyone else is to fight the hardest battle a human being can fight, and never stop fighting.
