Born
Two to face the world together
In fire and in ice
Torn
Two to face the world apart
In light and in dark

Halves incomplete
The whole a mystery
Twin suns
Shining on their fates
In hope and in despair

All are born from the dark
Close your eyes
There the self is absolute
One against the world
She, too, is dark

Light beckons him
He will never trust the glow
Shut it out
Beneath the shadows
Light still finds him through the cracks

Two
A soul divided
Reaching for the boundary
The light blinding
Dark closing in
Two pairs of eyes
Struggling to see.
