Dark Light

It's not as dark as you think,

With everything there's a dark and light.

When you lay beneath a starry night,

Do you see only the dark?

No, you see the bright stars smiling down on your awe-struck face.

Can coffee not also be lightened when milk is added?

So everything reflects this theory,

A mirror held up to the world.

I'm not tortured,

I'm not alone.

In fact, I find that I'm quite the opposit.

The creatures of the forest befriended me in the dark,

But I could see them clear as day as they carried me away.

I will forever more be unseen by the ugly things,

Be forever kept in the dark light.
