“We are but a reflection of the Sun. Just like the Moon. Maybe that’s why we are in love with the Moon, perpetually. What more glorious a fact could there be, that the Darkness births the Light? Thus the Light prevails; as a reflection, and as not a reflection. What more magic could there be? The long, old twinkling of the Stars; Stars that live far, and further. Darkness filled with millions of bright shells of nurturing; abundant with more wondrous Suns than our minds can perceive. What more is there to behold than the Night itself? What more is there to behold than the warmth of Darkness itself?” - indefiniteloop.com
This one is inspired by one of the my favourite fantasy series - The Wheel of Time, by Robert Jordan / Brandon Sanderson.
“And the Glory of the Light did shine upon him.
And the Peace of the Light did he give men
Binding nations to him. Making one of many.
Yet shards of hearts did give wounds.
And what was once did come again
-in fire and in storm
splitting all in twain.
For his peace…
- for his peace…
…. was the peace ….
…. was the peace ….
…. of the sword.
And the Glory of the Light did shine upon him.” - The Wheel Of Time, by Robert Jordan / Brandon Sanderson.
