Day & Night

The hands strike twelve

But is it midnight or noon?

Who is out now—the sun or the moon?

Neither one is wrong or right

It’s just the difference of day and night

Time still passes

Moments take place

But they just happen

One, without the other’s face

Because you can’t see the beauty of the sea

How the onyx surface looks so glassy

While you’re under the moon

Tucked in and dreaming

Of grand times basking in the sun

And I can’t see the casted shadows

From rocks amidst the vast landscape

While I’m daytime dozing

Swaying in a hammock from warm summer breezes

Dreaming about dancing in the moonlight

Neither one is wrong or right

It’s just the difference of day and night

Even though it might feel brief

These two bodies, still do meet

A sunrise and a nightfall

Are still, in fact

A moonrise and a dayfall, after all

One is what makes the other grand

That split second

A shared moment

The two, hand-in-hand

But one must stay and one must go

Otherwise, there’s no tomorrow

Neither one is wrong or right

It’s just the difference of day and night
