Light Vs Dark

When reckoning 
skies loom in 
ashen flecks, 
embers of flames 
bleed repressed rays, 
and demons
of disgrace clamor,
like wailing wind 
against the 
eclipsed dark. 
For light in all 
its glory is the true 
monster disguised
in luminous moonrise.

This is a very interesting concept and way of thinking my beautiful soul sis! Its weighs so deep and heavy and makes me ponder too, maybe light can be deceitful and in times of light sometimes we forget to praise the lord and be thankful, so darkness comes as saving grace or light that guides u back to the right, if that makes sense? Thats how I perceived this, I absolutely love your last line! It should be a quote! Your way with words is impeccable! So powerful and soul stirring! Pleasure readn

Exactly!!! What you said! I’m also pondering more on this. I find it so intriguing and it makes sense! You always capture the essence of my words perfectly! Yes, light can be deceitful, and we do forget to praise the lord..and what do we have left? I feel a world of hate, pain and deep wounds..we need to be guided back to what made the light, the light. It absolutely makes sense! Or maybe light had always been the dark? Thank you so much my beautiful soul sis for your wise and divine words!! I always love pondering with you! Hehe
