The Light
Blinds me to knowone
Amidst, lighting-out my path to confusion
It was what I seeked whiles in the tunnel
My entry was as what I left
I now seek the dimmed
A journey made is time spent
Blinds me to knowone
Amidst, fading-out my path to terror
It was what I never seeked but found myself
Now I strive to the light
One that blinds folds
So I ask,
How powerful is the light
How powerful is the dim in the tunnel
What power has either without the other
So perfect they cannot be put apart
A couple with sets of wayward infants
Life indeed roller-coasts
Life is a blend of both, although skewed
The heavens, this life and the bottomless pit
The light, this broad crossroad and the tunnel
Perfection at its best
