Where Darkness Lies
With the pale full moon shining bright
the naked eye sees constellations in the skies
celestial bodies shine their light
shards of hope where darkness lies
as day light turns to darkened night
sunlight wanes,and slowly dies
as darkened night turns to day light
light of morning sun fills the eyes
warming the heart at the beautiful sight
the constellations that were once in the skies
with the pale full moon that shown so bright
still shards of hope where darkness lies
