There Was An Evening, and a Morning

"There was an evening, and a morning"

Abiding her time
 right in his shadow
 she followed
 day after day
 her course remained in the dark
 to all their eyes
 lit out of the shadow of clouds
 glued upon his every move, so devout.
 Yet one was not without the other
 Did they ever wonder?

Out of the shadow 
 her light grew in intensity
 her elegance, their effigy
 her course still not known
 yet she had become part 
 of his light
 shadowless 
 the high noon timelessness
 one was not without the other,
 did they ever wonder?

Then the night came
 she became 
 the only light they needed 
 to shape their heart
 into becoming a beacon
 of their own..
 But her course remained
 quite unknown
 Yet one is never without the other
 Did they ever wonder?
