Night and Day Vision

The path of my vision
A fading light
Turning the road upside down
With strewn glass and a round piece
Glittering in the sky a crown.

The Darkness now engulfing me
Sounds of the night awaken
The chill surfacing from deep within
Fear dampening my spirit, now shaken
Adjusting to the light to see.

Hope rays awaken a new day
When the night skies pack her toys
To turn the black box upside down again
The darkness once again, a decoy
In a land of fairytales and lullabies.
