Light and Dark

There is evil in the world, 

An all encompassing darkness, 

Pitch black like a raven’s wing 

And there is good in the world

A glimmering light, 

Illuminating like a beacon of the sea, 

Meant to guide those who are lost

Through the unforgiving night

There is good, there is evil

And there is a space within

A gray area, 

Existing to bridge the gap in between

One where light and darkness mingle, 

Conversing like old friends

For decades, even centuries, 

There has been evil in good, 

Light in darkness

Existing together, 

Needing one another to survive

As long as there is evil

In the world, 

There will be good, 

A glimmering beacon, 

To combat it
