In the Darkness and Out of the Light

In the cell of life
Many cells which are parted
Parted cells are departed
Up to the electron proton and neutron

Over the light
Lights up the darkness
Over the dark
Switch off the light

Smiling heart hides the lament 
Lamenting heart shows up smile
Duality of sings turn to hybridity 
Hybridity finds a center of unity

Barren and fertile dig the soil
To catch the balance, creeps through the tunnel
On the way, lit up candle goes out
Desperate life invent a fire

In the cell where we live
Spiral tunnel guides us to live
Like a snake crawls 
To catch the prey

Hunger and thirst of desire
Kneels to push and pull
To open up a new cell of life
In the dark and out of the light

Udaya R. Tennakoon
