I know you weren’t darkness – you were just trying to let darkness speak –
In a world that only recognizes light, even when it’s false –
Heartbreak, madness, vengeance, and loss – the places others fear to seek.
For sadness and loneliness lie trapped in bricked up walls.
But I see you. I know you.
For no darkness exists without light.
Deniers of truth, welcome cowardice in battle and comes the fall.

You drew your passion from hidden springs, and embraced the torrents and the storms
Understanding grief’s language and what it brings – seeing black when Heaven was blue.
A tender soul, willing to embrace the pain that exists when life is born.
And those you loved, you loved alone – but a love so deep, it was always true.
But I see you. I know you.
For no darkness exists without light.
Grief so deep it lives in the soul – lamenting in sorrow, but your love grew.

Black cats and ravens told your stories and wept –
For few took their truth and kept grief hidden away.
You rang all the bells of love, battle, and warning, but ears remained deaf.
Unwilling to face fear, they fought to keep it at bay.
But I see you. I know you.
For no darkness exists without light.
Beautiful in dark, your words give me wisdom and light my own way.
