Essence of Light

And in this darkness a darkness we breed a darkness we feed and by hope we pray for an end To our own fumblings of blindness the void it lives and the void it breathes to suffocate our belief in emptiness Darkness we believe more than in the passing of night darkness when we are unable to see the light Day Wrought by a stars profusion in the coruscation of billions lays a promise of splendour into the heavens We do not perceive its oceans and we do not feel its resurrection a promise resting in the heart of creation Darkness And we seek escape clinging to the fluffy toy of hope and all is the darkness with which we create this comedian of our tragic hope Light ( Life ) By informational essence a living particle of the sun by eyes, by emotion and by its experience witnessed Light into water, into blood, into wine to receive and then to see Darkness we believe more than in the passing of night true darkness we receive when we refuse to see the light
