Light Rather Night

Once more if not too much Graced me beyond darkness you know Simply a fade light to touch For eternal nights only you can show Need you a light you’ve never seen? Have I the dark unnoticed? Have you a blackness so clean? With never the shielding light as promised? With light you can only see With the darkness, you can always be Have I a light to set me free? Yet with darkness... might just be me Neither here nor there I dwell With the balance of day and night Either here or there I’m well Yet have I not a sight for insight? Perhaps too much of light to touch To be gracing with darkness you know Once more if not too much An eternal night will you not show?
