Life a play

We act our part

Bend and sway

Illusion the art

–

See only light

Ignore the spots

There lives plight

Struggles forgot

–

No contrast

Without compare

Fades fast

Ruthless despair

–

Craving the dark

It helps me see

Need only spark

Trust and believe

–

We need the cave

Open field scary

Cautious not brave

Of reality wary

–

The darkness

In the light

That I caress

In it I delight
