May The Light Remain

Is it possible to separate darkness from light?
When the two are embedded as one
Darkness, the aggressor. Light,  just a flicker 
Both a formidable force 
Darkness, constantly nagging
Light, calming the storm
But both feeding from the other
What would this darkness do, if the light might fail?
Would it seep through the labyrinth of mind without contempt?
Would it turn this man to monster?
Might it show him the things of nightmares?
But the light!
Yes... That flicker of hope
It keeps him from slipping into oblivion 
Keeps him from... Falling apart
But should the pilot go out!
Would that darkness become cancer?
That spreads to the soul intent on doing good
Would it choke, expel and demand it's kingdom?
The body in which it dwells
Or will that light never dwindle?
Keeping the shadow assassin at bay
Only in death then, shall the two be separated 
But in life... May the light remain
