Light Is Here To Stay

I am an ember in the night Something dark but seems right I am moss upon the tree Someone soft, beautiful, but inside me There’s both dark and light Sometimes one will take my sight When the darkness takes over I am rolling like a boulder Courageous, dangerous, everything upon my shoulder I let it go but I’m the holder When the light shines down on me I see the gold inside of me I seek it often but it leaves When it does I grieve and grieve I’ll climb a mountain to find the answers But then my will becomes a cancer When the light shows my path I yell out and show my wrath The darkness folds into its cage When it opens out comes rage Lately light has come to stay Tells me let go of my ways Shows me the beauty around me So much light I finally see
