Into 

Into the night and on to the day
we stretch across time and space.
Searching for that which is always before us
but never within our grasp.

Into our thoughts we explore our dreams
filled with wishes, longing to make sense of our lives.
Yet still we're left with little understanding
our hands reaching for an answer.

Into our hearts we wish to hold the world
to Grab it with passion and want
Yet in the end we loose all that we seek
finding the world indifferent to us.

Into the night we gather together
trying to push away the darkness.
Not knowing that we create it within us
to explode in hate and pain. 

Into a mother's arms is place a new born babe
and the night grows bright, so the dark shrinks back.
There is a power to bring about all we seek
the trick is not to horde it but, to give it unconditionally.

So that it may returning one hundred fold to be yours
and that is love..
