The Night Sky Dies


I can't See anything.

Where is the light?

Darkness envelopes the sky,

with nothing but tiny dots twinkling in a sea of black ink.

 

Like anything, the light from the stars doesn't last.

The lights soon sink

deep below the horizon,

never to be seen again.

 

A great ball of light

rises above the horizon line, 

blanketing the land

in a brilliant flash.

 

I still can't see anything.

Where is the darkness?

The shine covers the Earth, 

no dark spots seen for the sky is forever lit.
