Light and Dark Once More

There is no time in the sun,

Only light and dark,

When one life ends is it done

Or can we ignite a spark?

To be born alone in this mess,

Travel the earth for this soul,

Sometimes I wonder I must confess,

Does this pain have its toll?

Why do we feel such loneliness,

With billions of us here,

Why can't we embrace

Instead of causing such tears?

Why do I feel such hatred,

Toward others here with me,

I wish I could knock down this barrier,

That never should be.

Let me hold you before I die,

And never can I touch you again,

Let me see it in your eyes,

The places that you have been.

Then maybe as the sun sets,

I can release all my pain,

Into the water and let it wash

Away this ugly stain.
