The tree of life is everlasting with great beauty to behold
Seeds may fall to the sea of green
Sheltered by the tender blades
forever reproducing life

Others fall but never rise
Falling on the shady side
On earth refusing to produce a bud
Unable to see the light

The tree of life is torn
Between the darkness and the light
Unable to conclude or choose
Which is morally right

And in all the fury
The tree of life is struck
By a bolt of indecision
And it withers to the ground

The darkness did not flourish
Nor was it enlightened with hope
And the light side lives in denial
That the dark side even exists
