Yin-Yang

Walking around,
looking down and see a pool of Light.
Getting a closer look,
and notice a little piece of Darkness.
Turn around,
and see a pool of Darkness.
Getting a closer look,
and notice a piece of Light.
Stuck in the middle,
nowhere to run.

Darkness Follows

Where do I find the light within the darkness?
What will happen if I can’t find it?
If I run away from the darkness, 
Will it follow me?
I escaped the Darkness, 
and wonder into the light.

Inside

Inside the heart lies two pieces of energy,
there is a light energy,
There is a dark energy.

Beings of light,
you think that you have complete light inside.
In reality,
there is always a piece of darkness inside you.

Beings of darkness,
you think that you have complete darkness inside. 
In reality,
there is always a piece of light inside you.

Eye of Light

The Eye of Light,
Surrounding a little piece of Darkness.
Light trying to overlap the Darkness,
but one cannot exist without the other.
If the Darkness is gone forever,
the light will be the dominate force in the world,
The world will be imbalanced.
The Darkness is gone,	
The Light is taking over.
Darkness disappears,
Light dominates.

Eye of the In-Between

A pool of Light, 
a pool of Darkness.
In the middle, 
a line runs through.
To the right is Darkness,
To the left is Light.
Step to the left and enter the Light,
or, Step to the right and enter the Darkness.
Choose wisely.

Come In

Come in the Light,
escape the Darkness.
As the Light gets brighter,
the Darkness fades.

Come in the Darkness,
escape the Light.
As the Darkness grows,
the Light gets dimmer.

Two choices,
which on will you go to?

Eye of Darkness

The Eye of Darkness, 
surrounding a little piece of Light.
The Darkness try to over,
but one cannot exist without the other.
If the Darkness takes over,
the world will be in chaos.
Light will be gone forever,
Darkness will be the dominant force in the world.

Listen

The light in your heart, 
is talking.
The darkness in your heart, 
is talking.
Which part do you listen to?
Listen to what truly resides in your heart

Give In

Do you give in to the Light,
or do you give in to the Darkness?

If you choose to give into the Darkness,
the Light will still be there.
If you choose to give into the Light,
the Darkness will still be there.

What Lies In the Heart

Every heart has Darkness in it, 
even those filled with complete light.
The heart that is filled with complete darkness, 
has a little bit of light.
When darkness disappears from the heart, 
the light will take over.
When light disappears from the heart, 
the darkness will take over.
