I see light in the darkness.
I see the leaves fall.
I see the sun rise above the sky.
The heat enveloping us all.
I see the peace in a riot.
Scattered on the broken glass.
The children cry, yet sing.
Upon the starving mass.
I see the joy in anger.
The bloodlust for hate.
But I help the needy otherwise.
For help is never too late
I see the divine in the unholy.
The blessed tainted with corrupt blood.
The sins that is the never pure.
To their eyes, deep buried in mud.
I see the love in abuse.
The correct in the Wrong.
The forgiveness in the inflicters.
For forgiveness never to long.
I see the shadows over the horizon.
And the sorrow in the soldiers beer.
Lay down, my child, and rest.
Close your eyes, and forget the evil, my dear.

Very interesting....I understand you in many ways...We have to see the opposite of things in order to appreciate them correctly. Light & Darkness are equal and you cannot have anything good without respecting the fact that it may not last forever....Nice job
I think I know where you are going here . One has to walk on both sides of the street to know the block .
We need to know the bad to see the good. Good write,
