Light and Dark


There once was a girl who fell in love,

over and over with everything in and out of sight.

She never knew how to control her love-

And then the world showed her it’s ways and

Suddenly, her love was gone.

And the light was no more and the darkness was forevermore.

There was a boy who came to see

The girl that the world claimed was bright as he

But alas no girl existed such more.

Determined, he set out to help the girl.

She found love again in his arms

and he found hatred in his love.

She tried to save the boy she once knew

but to no avail.

The boy was gone; hope was lost.

Because he was the light to her darkness

and she was the darkness to his light.
