Light

Light
           Bright, beautiful
   Shining, illuminating, seeing
Morning star, sun, night, shadow
    Blurring, blinding, covering
            Dark, dreading
                 Darkness

Very haunting and beautiful at the same time...I can definitely project all of my sadness onto this. The one of light slowly turns back towards the inevitable dark... Every time I'm happy and cheery I can't help but wonder how long I have until the next bout of anger and depression will set in. Just like your poem tracks the light of day to the dark of night, so my mood goes sour eventually, my guess is I'm not alone in this respect...thanks for letting me project myself on your poem Adeleke
