The brightest silver trinket
That gleams beneath the light,
Will have a dark side under it,
A portion of the night.
Every joy you are to feel,
Will have an ending day.
Treasure brightness in the sun,
Make every moment pay.
The darks a time for dreaming,
As shadows dull the pain.
The essence of a treasure lost,
And things not seen again.
