where there is darkness,
evil lurks.
where there is light,
hope lives.
where they meet,
morals tested.
the darkness speaks in
hushed whispers.
the light speaks
with compassion.
the darkness tempts using
human arrogance.
the light tempts using
human values.
the darkness capitalizes
on fear.
the light encourages acts
of courage.
the darkness offers an
easy path.
the light offers a
complex one.
the darkness shows a
world suffering.
the light shows a
lost world.
where they meet, all
is equal.
where they meet,
i stand.
my morals forever
at war.
my humanity
forever intact.
