Jij bent een kat en ik niet,
je kijkt in het donker, terwijl ik niks zie.
Ik heb haar alleen op mijn hoofd,
en kijk naar buiten terwijl jij vogels rooft.
Je hebt vier poten en ik heb er twee,
Ik roep "kom" en je gaat met me mee.
Twee oren, twee ogen, dat hebben we allebei wel,
maar ik ren langzaam en jij kan heel snel.
Het grootste verschil is toch dat ik kan praten,
met woorden en letters, dat kan ik soms haten.
Sprak jij eens een zin daar,
dan ben ik benieuwd naar.
Wat zou je dan zeggen,
met mij overleggen?
Of hoef je geen woorden, maar gebruik je je mauw,
om zomaar te zeggen "ik hou ook van jou."
this is my first ever poem. dont laugh too loud please.
I see the darkness surround you as it opens it mauw.
Watch you struggle to get out before it closes the door.
The light I have to give could turn the tide in your battle.

I give you my light
and let the darkness have me.
I do not fear the dark the way that others do.

While they watch and think me drowned,
I return it's embrace.
The darkness doesn't consume me,
it bends and obeys.

Darkness is my kingdom where I create and I thrive.
I don't need the light for which you fight and strive.
All I need do if I want light,
is to make it.

Do not fear the dark when it is your friend.
A hard one I admit,
for it will teach you to never bend.
The dark will teach you to thrive where others always fail.

Come play in my kingdom and I'll keep you safe.
I'll teach you the land and the best places to play.
Show you its wonders and all my favorite spaces,
that taught me how to live in both places.

Come,
find the other half of your soul
and together we'll stitch it, mend it
and make it whole.
For you are neither darkness nor light,
you're a blend of both, as it right.

So do not hide who you truely are,
for within you
lies power unmatched by far.
Join my kingdom and I'll teach you to rule,
I'll show you the magic you have within you.

Come, lost soul and take it all in.
Your creations are waiting for you....
to be happily blended again.
