The Hearth of Nzuri

In the presence of light darkness conceals itself, In the presence of darkness a favor light does not return, But light can be good as well as corrupted For the pain of betrayal does not come from thy enemy, But the one in which they trust and call thy friend. The devil was once an angel, So do you think his glow has faded? On the faces of beautiful people lie hearts bitter and jaded, So do not believe that darkness is bad and light is good, For the light can deceive but the darkness is blunt and never would.
