one red and black,one green and white

one open,one closed one day one night

is one truly a life when it takes only space

while the other contributes so much to its race

while one is green and open and white

the other knows only refuge and fright

the person this is is one and the same

but his minds so controlling in its little game

those days of closed of black and of red

are the days that this mind would rather be dead

but as of today green open and white

have the strength and the will to withstand this fight

as days turn to months, months into years

green open and white may turn into tears

so he must take control of whats in his head

or forever will be night black and red
