The Darkness shines Bright
from images in our minds
peering into nothing we see everything
and yet still know it not at all
Reaching into the blackness of the shadows
grasping nothing but enlightenment
a handfull of compassion
for all our tomorrows are clear and bright
as the shield of darkness
even in the sun with wide eyes we are blind
like a moonless night in the caverns of our minds
our ears still hear the ticking away of life and time
in the darkness,
calculating the day our lives will no longer chime
on a 2 am kitchen raid with the lights off
our days are the same way
running till we stub our toes
then coming to life as our pace is slowed
in the darkness we become bright
