Diamonds and Ashes

He  thinks,  he won a battle
But war is full of battles
Lets keep that in mind
While weaving   
beams and streams
the web of lights

Days they die  
light glows
Warrior of light seeks
his  shades  in dark
 with pain inflamed
He  digs his  ground under
to the heated core.

And light he seeks,
though dark he fought
is light his speech
he  weeps  diamonds
And burns in 
smoke and ashes.
