in light

—shadows are cornered,

trembling, and fearsome of,

the radiant.

in dark

—light still overpowers,

piercing shadows with swords,

and relentless.

in dreams

—realities go missing,

a Forgotten, a Myth, a Truth,

made untrue.

in reality

—dreams are lurking,

whispering temptations,

and constant wonders.

in life

—ever so prevalent,

death hugs from behind,

never letting go.

in death

—life is always "was",

a past never to repeat,

and there's no restart button.
