When one feels so different from the rest They seek in life to find their quest, There are two roads to travel on Yes two sides of this coin Now fear is placed in the light, and looked upon with such spite As the dark live in content, believing nothing is heaven sent They don't worry if they do wrong, no commandments have they to anyone Just them selves have they to serve, as long as life is spent on earth While the light, they serve to live in grace To see the beauty of the pearly gates, and pray their names are etched in stone So behind the gates, they can make their home Many a year, in century's past have consumed this question : today still asked? Why some choose light and some choose dark ? And its still a matter for the heart Beliefs, are such a funny thing The echo's of our beckoning's As we have read, everyone, we were given choice, to act upon... And choice is what separates, the light and dark of every fate "Never question" is the quote, yet man kind seems to rock this boat As all fail at this request It is the questions that get the best There two sides of this coin, One has Died for all man kind Through his Death the light does shine One was evicted from God's throne, it is in the darkness he makes his home To some the Death , does play a part of every fiber in there heart And some choose dark as they are weak, the strength of evicted one is what they seek Difference, acceptance, their own choice, yet they long to hear the voice Of that one to whom they gave their soul, whom in the end will have control that beautiful angle, God did hold And in the end when all is through, the gates of Hell they'll run too ‘Tis then their master they shall meet face to face as burn in greed, destined for eternity As the Maker, the Creator, of all who are will feast and gaze on all his stars As they burn bright above the clouds Where darkness, is never allowed Oh, so here again you ask. What will become of us when we pass? Why some choose light and some choose dark? Let's find a simple way to start. The light it shines on unending roads A kingdom come they have been told with streets that are lined with sold gold, where wings of white will unfold The dark can not see where it is they go Tis only in life, riches they'll know holding only what they grasp, No hopes of power from earth will last It is in life that we take heed to chose what's right, or what we need Only what we build can we seek ... As we hold the tools to whom we meet Living hand and hand, yet separately Not ever on this earth will we see Why some choose light and some choose dark It is still, a matter for the heart Tori 99 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If with pen in hand I've made you think I've not wasted one drop of ink vlh.
