Light Stands Out

It comes as day eclipses like faded sheets of grey moment to moment to black even here light shines through The smallest step crickets stop their orchestra silent and still they resume It comes as day eclipses like purple strands still grasping for life tic-tock tic tock to ebony even here light shine through Fears and lore written here reading by fire It comes as day eclipses It goes as day transits like pulling back a hue less veil time after time till bright A loud step birds flushed a new song singing also alight they rest It goes as day transits like purple strands still grasping for life meter by meter to light even here darkness resides Written here psalms and comfort reading by water It goes as day transits
