The eternal play

 This play of darkness and light 

dare I say has brought 

something to my life 

Or has it torn my heart apart 


Yet for the craters my vision 

were I the moon 

 The beauty seen with your light  

In the darkness of the night 


Yet were I the owl for all

the  other birds flying in the sky 

I see the wonders 

In the darkness of the night 


Were I the soul searching for

In the broad daylight

endless answers to endless questions  

Of a poor human heart  


Would  I with such fierce abandon    

Into the depths of darkness find 

For the joy of finding 

the first glimpse of light 


Then again the same question 

Yet for the umpteenth time 

Were it were the darkness first

Or were it were the light
