Once I watched the world, in stark contrast
I saw it in Black and White, with no morass
Pure, powerful, Eternal and separated
Always, was I told, the two are never integrated
Once I watched the world, alone on the hill
Shadows to find, time to kill
Something came, causing great vex
I tried to ward it away, with a quick hex
A little gremlin, rotten and old
His eyes shimmered of fire and gold
He sat down upon my knee
And he sang to me of what I would see
He sang me of the darkest black
He sang me how he could not hold it back
He sang me there, for me to find
I took it all, left none behind
I took my darkness, and more desired
Soon into the darkness I retired
The light, you see, it hurt my head
To the living, I believe, I was dead
I wandered like that for many a year
Wondrous things I saw, without fear
Without hope, or dream, or death or control
I spiraled down to the bottom of my hole
Once I watched the world, you see
Never again was I that free
Till the day came I was again up on high
I never believed what would happen to I
'twas the goblin from before, oh the brass
He came again, myself to harass
I prepared a spell, powerful and dark
When the goblin let out a terible spark
"The Light" he said "It is too strong"
"I thought I could controll it, I was wrong"
I saw now that he needed my skill
That Light would need a powerful will
I drank it all, every last drop
Drank it up, I could not stop
Greyscale descended, but not harmony
I remember hearing an odd symphony
I opened my eyes, and I rubbed my head
I looked around my tired little bed
I headed downstairs and went to the sink
From the faucet I got me a drink
Then I wither away, back to my slumber
Soon I was snoring like a mill on lumber
I visited wonders, I cried real tears
I lived many decades, in imaginary years
Once I sat alone, upon a high hill
I had Time to catch and Shadows to kill.
