A Kernel of Truth

There's more darkness than there will ever be of light Look at how the stars freckle the sky at night easy to stay outside the circle of the light around the flame black shades the space so I don't face the sorrow in the shame the universe, a night shadow dark with distant spots of glow evening the flow of my nature I cant see, no more to know vision always seeks all that's caste in a ray, provides knowledge, and so, insight now seize the day but the shine is too much for the nocturnal gleaming a little, thus too much of my truth inside its kernel so I wait for dusk to settle calming craze so I can be the parts of myself I love covers enough so I feel free the universe, a night shadow dark with distant spots of glow evening the flow of my nature I can't see, no more to know put your flashlight down unless to want to see inside my smile there's a frown a sadness greater than the day of a truth that can't handle a light that just might stay
