When light spoke
Darkness went silent
And stood aside
For light to shine
When light danced
Darkness seized all movement
And stopped in its tracks
And made a way for light
When light shone
Darkness hid
Out of sight
But right by its edges
And soon light saw
That darkness
Was nothing but
Its own unconquered space
Nothing but
The places it did not travel to
Nothing but
Its undiscovered Self
A Self which hides
And then seeks
Not yet knowing that
That which seeks
And that which is sought
Are one and the same
