the light invaded darkness once that was. <br />its brightness lay to waste the perfect night, <br />and blackness stained, blood seeping through the gauze <br />which hides a wound, while crimson rose on white <br />belies pretence, by hinting at the flaws, <br />the damage not presented to our sight <br />which tho unseen is evident because. <br />thus darkness was infected by the light. <br /> <br />so sing the praise of heaven! if you must <br />equate its glory with some transient star <br />though darkness were the better one to trust <br />which ever will embrace the ghoul you are <br />who sift through death to gather gold from rust <br />for light no matter near to you of far <br /> <br />one day when eyes accostume to the glare <br />shall simply blink out, vanish in thin air<br /><br />moon batchelder<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dark-and-light-7/
