The Seeker
He roams alone in realms of night
He searches for a fire
A flicker in the dark he seeks
A flame to lift him higher
He knows the light is hard to find
But still he does not tire
He is a seeker of illumination
A seeker of the fire
But in his way there stands a foe
A keeper of the dark
A smotherer of every spark
A snuffer of the arc
He wants to keep the night alive
And leave the world in mire
He is a hater of illumination
A hater of the fire
He longs to break the bars that trap
He dreams of peaceful waves
A breeze to soothe his weary soul
A sea to wash his pain
He knows the peace is hard to keep
But still he does not wane
He is a seeker of illumination
A seeker of the rain
But in his way there stands a foe
A keeper of the storm
A stirrer of every wave
A blower of the horn
He wants to keep the chaos high
And leave the world in strain
He is a hater of illumination
A hater of the rain
He fights the land where truth is false
He braves the tyrant's blade
A shield to guard his noble heart
A sword to cut his way
He knows the justice is hard to win
But still he does not stray
He is a seeker of illumination
A seeker of the day
But in his way there stands a foe
A keeper of the lie
A twister of every word
A bender of the eye
He wants to keep the power strong
And leave the world in sway
He is a hater of illumination
A hater of the day
He follows his own star that glows
He never ends his quest
He knows the light is hard to reach
But still he does his best

He is a seeker of illumination
A seeker of the rest
