The Darkening Light

Light lights the darkness And in turn the darkness darkens the light A battle rages on Seemingly never to stop Who will rule the time? For darkness rules the night And light fights through the day No! Light rules both night and day Aha! Look at the moon- its light but shines in the night It shines through the rays of tender hearts With the wind whispering destruction As trees and braches shake off Paying witness to our lost intellect You seek warmth in the solace of the wild And find excitement in our lost wisdom The moon and the stars shine Leading us to our desolation Clear paths lead us Down the sweet sour pavement
