The Mystery of Darkness and Light

We the ones who never sleep,we like stars 
painting the sky lighting up the world from dark 
thoughts,in this devils hour with my eyes naked 
and seeing everything thru the two sided 
mirror,watch sadly when breaths and souls leave 
various bodies,when the chimneys breathe and 
welcome a new day,the white smoke filling the 
empty sky,not only is this a signal for popes,but 
new lives showering this earth,in case I never 
wake,read these lines during the day knowing I 
never slept writing this,voices emerging from 
innocent wombs,yet in the morning some shall 
be covered by tombs,life and death,where do we 
go from this earth?
