When the darkness falls...
Softness and light attracted me,
When I was young and naive,
As i grew up I saw a world,
Where darkness mattered more than light,
It grew on me like an endless vine,
Like a flow of gentle river,
A hush where crowds fall silent,
Where peace blooms like a flower,
Like a soft pause before the rain,
The beauty the darkness holds,
As the stars that twinkle in the night,
They need shadows to unfold,
It embraces me within itself,
When the world is overwhelming,
It rocks me softly and keeps me safe,
Like hands of someone caring...
