The Content Darkness

Black clouds roll into the forefront
Hovering over a dark green ocean
Miles above, light and white clouds
     and sunshine
But riding a meteor to the surface,
An explosion of light
Disrupts the content darkness
The weight stirs
The heaviness growls with an angry frown
But what darkness was ever able to 
     surround and snuff out a light?
Light and darkness cannot
     coexist in the same place
Darkness always retreats
Goes fleeing for the corners
It has to hide because it is weaker
It has to convince others of its power
     because it knows it is weak


The dark clouds part
The ocean turns from dark green to 
     bright blue
The meteor sets the ocean on fire, 
     forcing the darkness to retreat
     farther and farther and farther and farther and farther and farther and farther

This is what light always does to 
     darkness
Like gravity pulling a meteor towards 
     the surface
Light forces darkness to vanish
