it is one's choice

it is one's choice

there is not much difference between the dark and the light

both giving sense of security and promise of reward 

rather than pain

both are only opposite ends of the same stick 

that one needs find the point of balance 

in effort to not fall victim to either 

there is such creature 

as too much good 

that leads to complacent deed

and the dark is that 

which feeds our fears in celebration 

of itself 

it is one's choice to see or not 

the offered rewards
