Blinded by the Light

Blinded by the light
I stand
Torn
Tortured
By my desire for what I want
That unattainable out-of-reach
Light.

Blinded indeed,
For as I turn my back in agony
On that false god
I see with horror
My own fearful shadow
Darker still from the brightness of the light,
Stretching before me.

I have missed the point.
In my passion for unity
My shadow grows ever greater.

I have missed the point.
It’s not about light and dark
But what is in between.

I have missed the point.

Too long have I wandered in the lies of light.
Now, with resolve,
It is time to walk
Into the Night.
