The sun dies

and is reborn as the moon

day light cries

as darkness robs it of its wealth.

The sky tries to kill the world

to kidnap its life

and drown it in grey.


but

the world is a rebel...


the city lights light up

like a shield to the very soil they stand on

the cars

with their taillights  

speed on bridges

lilac headlights flying over the great dark sea

flowing golden

like a Greek God's blood,

shutters are brought down in progression

like screams of protest

and soon

just before the world goes to bed

it whispers in the ears' of constellations

"wash that eyeliner off,doesn't suit the shine of the of your lip gloss"

and in a matter of time

even the stars sing godly hymns


blind bats become warriors

"ugly" owls become the wittiest

and together they protest,

and orchestra to deafen the dark.


helpless,it surrenders,the dark.


and the  sun,he comes alive again

as daylight wipes her tears


such is the earth

a patriot at heart

a fighter in blood

a rebel in mind

just one flaw

its blind

unfortunate enough

it cant see the beauty it has  inside.
