Strange New LIght

Folder: 
Tell Me Why

Singing the story of another night
A time when light was stranger
Becoming somehow the mask you wear
The more we are at danger
Written long before our birth
Just like the stars and moon
Like the distance from our earth
Living inside our darkened minds
Eternally searching in a time
Where light was strange and people too
Where no one came
And then came you
In a way the story screams
Yet is whispered across the nation
Too far for us the hear
Nothing the same again
Far far far away
Singing the story of another day
Searching for a darkened mind
To place the light we cannot find
Search before the moon is full
Plow the dirt the fields give
Story of the moon and night
Nothing left but that strange new light

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I went into a trance-like state when I wrote this. I woke out of it and read what I had written for the first time, because while I was writing all I did was look at the keyboard. Freaked me the crap out because, hey, I was at school in class and all the sudden I am writng a poem about strange light. I love this one though. I am sure you are not supposed to say you like your work, but I feel this deserves an exception.
