The Light

Blinds me to knowone Amidst, lighting-out my path to confusion It was what I seeked whiles in the tunnel My entry was as what I left I now seek the dimmed A journey made is time spent Blinds me to knowone Amidst, fading-out my path to terror It was what I never seeked but found myself Now I strive to the light One that blinds folds So I ask, How powerful is the light How powerful is the dim in the tunnel What power has either without the other So perfect they cannot be put apart A couple with sets of wayward infants Life indeed roller-coasts Life is a blend of both, although skewed The heavens, this life and the bottomless pit The light, this broad crossroad and the tunnel Perfection at its best ©Kofi Asokwa-Nkansah
