Wherever darkness falls

Wherever darkness falls

Perhaps people are afraid of darkness
As everywhere that darkness falls
In holding cells
In draughty halls
All looks the same
So when in darkness you’re surrounded
Nothing is to say
That you are not there as well

In darkness there is absence
Nothing
So nothing is to say
That everything and nothing aren’t the same

In light, people take comfort
For in the fires of life we prevail
Light holds steady, true
And if we would care to draw away our eyes
From the light, the source, the ancient idea
Then we would see
What there really is to be
Seen beyond the shadows
