so what if nothing is safe?
so what if no one is saved?
no matter how sweet,
no matter how brave.
what if each to his own lonely grave?
so what if no one is saved?
no matter how sweet,
no matter how brave.
what if each to his own lonely grave?
the dark is generous, and it is patient.
it is the dark that seeds cruelty into justice,
that drips contempt into compassion,
that poisons love with grains of doubt.
The dark can be patient,
because the slightest drop of rain will cause
those seeds to sprout.
the rain will come, and the seeds will sprout,
for the dark is the soil in which they grow,
and it is the clouds above them,
and it waits behind the star that gives them light.
the dark's patience is infinate.
eventually, even stars burn out.
