Day and Night

The darkness of the night
The lightness of the day
As different as could be
Their beauty i could see

The silence of the night
The chaos of the day
As different as could be
Their beauty i could see

The moonlight of the night
The sunlight of the day
As different as could be
Their beauty i could see

The fear of the night
The safety of the day
As different as could be
Their beauty i could see

As she fell with a bloodied cry

Her white clothes were red
With the stream of blood that flowed

And her eyes were wet
With the tears of death that flowed

The darkness closed in then
As she breathed her last

Screaming her last scream
She fell to the ground

That it broke my heart to watch

As I turned away

She screamed as she fell

& breathed her last in the dirt
