Time's passing
Time flies swiftly through the world,
Never stopping, never waiting,
Not a whisper can be heard,
Though the present's always moving.
Past grows long while future's leaving,
The yet to come is growing small,
Past grows longer, never changing,
But present moves for all.

Fearing the dark
Fear of the dark is normal,
Because the night is nightmare's place,
For nothing honest hides its name,
And nothing of beauty hides its face.
Nothing true walks shadowed ways,
Shadows hide themselves in night,
For all the nightmares fear the day,
Because it hurts to face the light.
A person often walks by day,
And turns and flees from shining moon,
For many humans do believe
That darkness brings eternal doom.
It's okay to be afraid,
For darkness tries to swallow all,
The unknown scares us night and day,
And when it hits us hard, we fall.
