Night Inside Me-revised (poetry challenge)

Transcendence; tread lightly.
Co-dependence, beside me.
Perturbance, it feeds the mighty.
The real disturbance? "the night inside me".

But the dark energy, the calamity, won't deny me. 
My synergy, insanity , come on and try me. 
Oh... I long, for a bond with the strong, the sightly Knight beside me. 
would he guide me, like the night inside me? 

The kite glides free, with a fool who might be, holding on tightly... nightly.
The days of light be, bright with spite... relying blindly, blindly on the sun; but we're spun... 
And there's no ride free. 

The night inside, is bonafide and you should try it. 
it's not calm and quiet. 
It's a cricket riot. 

So I wait 
with the bait, 
stand up just and rightly,
 "but I only might be".
