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
