I like the dark. Why does one say it is sad? The sky isn't dazzling without it A hero isn't intriguing without it. I feel at home under the sheets In a dark room, holding the hand of Silence For we are old pals, acquainted by time Words flow unsaid between us Revelations new, thoughts of old Scattered by the harshness of light The brilliance of reality that wakes From a peaceful slumber, even in unrest. So I bid goodbye to my good friend Leaving one hand for another Only to greet it again in the peace of the night Light and Dark are Yin and Yang From their union a spirit sang "Light isn't always great One takes as much as one could- And Darkness isn't really bad It's just... misunderstood."
