Day and Night

First light golden glow
daylight stains shadows 
near shadows staining light
until night
daylight's tanning glare
and crystal golden air
heated shadows paling everywhere

All matter's daylight's contured
creates this nexus 
until day's last light passed
when darkness cools in light's absence
night's conture creates matter's sillohuette
with ease eyes endure darkness
all matter's identity unknown
artificial light shone where shadows once roamed
where the material is invisable and shadows hide
and light never can't reside

Blind, insideout, when eyes are closed during eve's time 
The world's presence invisible, the new day's fate unknown
amidst dreams where the memory of light shone
