From Light To Night

Velvet touch or satin silk, maybe satin smooth Silver bears a hint of glow, the dark side of the moon Captured, caught or taken Resolved to quit, or fold Whichever words we chose to take Irregardless were taken hold Defy, defend, defiant Submitting, surreal, succumb Have you ever noticed how it just does not matter If you're to be darkened then darkness already has won Sinking, falling, lost Arising, returning, known From light to night, to knowledge I thought I knew more of me than you'd ever know Captured, held and blinded To release, caress and sight To truly understand living Don't be frightened to let go of life.
