Light In Darkness

We court darkness to see the light & every room has a bit of both We're the sum of wombs in many ways giving birth to things in route to growth Every little step we take is toward a cliff & one day we'll all exceed the edge The roads we take are hit or miss & every single path has a bit of dread Tread lightly in a dark world for heavy steps bring wear afoot We wear each other's skin like we're all the same so eventually shoes fit the other foot We couldn't see a thing inside the womb but still looked forward to a brighter life The divine darkness in which we're groomed only gives birth to growing light Don't fight the darkness inside of you but see the light within the shadows I feel all the struggles the same as you but the duality is half the battle
