| The Dark by Ruphalfa (written in 1996) The darkness suffocates the light Bringing no hope of tomorrow And, yet, the stars manage to find a way to shine And the moon still lights up the earth People still manage to go on And others manage to keep their smile The darkness comes so expectedly Every night a child goes to bed And, yet, some children are afraid of the darkness And some wait for darkness so they can dream People still let their fears keep them from their dreams And others wait to chase their dream I am one who smiles I am one who dreams I am one who lives in the dark |
