The Light Man

The darkening dusk of the sky
Fell upon the wide black desert
Minutes;seconds starts to go by
And the day and night shall divert.

Hither the light in the dark shone
Under the pale grey and calm moon
Lit by star lights was the hotel
Inside, a light man hither dwell.

His duty was to light the lamps
As soon as the darkness embraced
He knocks at every door room camps
For the candle fire shall be placed

"Knock, Knock, Knock, this is the light man
I'll provide thee light ere darkness
Open the door to my demand
For my torch will cast the brightness"

Ravine is the hallway's far length
There he stands waiting for response,
"Knock, Knock, Knock, this is the light man
I'll provide thee light ere darkness"

At length, the tall door was ajar
Pure blackness engulf the figure
And so it spoke for it to par
"No need, hence leave me in closure"

"But mister, you need light to see
Whereas in darkness you are blind
Please let me provide you with this
If you refuse, I wouldn't mind"

But the figure spoke,"Thanks, I'm good
But I rather choose not to have the sight
For I tremble when I see new
In light there's truth, in truth there's fright."

The tall brown door was shut in haste
And so the light man took his leave
He then walked yonder other place
Under the skies of the night's eve

"Knock, Knock, Knock, this is the light man
I'll provide thee light ere darkness
Open the door to my demand
For my torch will cast the brightness"

At length, the tall door was ajar
Pure blackness engulf the figure
And so it spoke for it to par
"No need, hence leave me in closure"

"But sire, in light there's clarity
Where you can find thy happiness
Thus you can find prosperity
Only in light, not in darkness."

"What a silly old man you are
I find your propositions wrong
For in darkness, there is pleasure
If you desire it, come along"

So the old stood as cold as stone
Never did he desire pleasures
Inside the room there came loud moans
He then took his own departure.

Alas, the night was deepening
And no one seeks the light of him
His torch fails and was weakening
While his face was weary and grim

At last he came upon a door
Taller and better than before
His hopes are high a smile he wore
"Someone who won't ignore!"

"Knock, Knock, Knock, this is the light man
I'll provide thee light ere darkness
Open the door to my demand
For my torch will cast the brightness"

At length, the tall door was ajar
Pure blackness engulf the sooth
And so it spoke for it to par
"Come, light the lamp and know the truth"

At last, the light man lit a fire
And thus the somber has begone
"Oh! What a beauty to admire!
It has been long since it was dawn!
