I know the sorrow of these men
one finds his heart sitting in limbo
one whose troubles have yet to touch his light
The light shines on them both
but one will not bask
the sorrow of the man grows
the light of one man stays just as bright as before but he watches in sorrow
as his troubled dark friend leaves him.
(there was always light )
the man in the dark is so far away he no longer sees the light
now the man must search for light in others
he has lost the one who kept him bright and hopeful
the light on the man who wanted was warm , glowing, perfect.
(there was always light there)
he looked for the other but all he saw was darkness
there was no need for him to look anymore - he had all the light his heart could hold
there were better days ahead for the sorrowful man in the dark
though he could not see them.
(there was always light there)
the man in the light continued to light the lives of others.
one night a great storm soared over the man in the dark and he saw flashes
of what he once knew, beautiful light that would lead him to another.
The quiet after the storm settled the heart of the man in darkness.
he slept for 41 nights
he woke the morning of his day of angels.
the man in darkness felt the earth move in his heart for the sight before him.
the other man was the sun and had risen in his eyes.
(there was always light there)
These were the gifts he gave to the man in the dark and his endless night sky
was filled with stars.
the man in darkness was again immersed in light from stars,
the sun and even the moonlight were there at his command
it was the first time someone stayed through his darkness and returned.
they felt their hearts so close and their joy would last til the end of time.
their glasses were again filled with dreams to kiss goodnight.
all the sorrow of these two men had left.
and the night finally meets the morning sun and
there was no more sorrow for the men.
(there will always be light there)
