Let go dark night’s shading, fading moon
Your day will come blading, raiding soon

Author Notes
Hold on to the fact that the sun will come up tomorrow and shine on YOU. Night time can be when all your fears and disappointments come to the fore. You may have a dark (k)night in your life (a depressing period of time or a person) who's influence is now waning and diminishing because you are feeling more positive about your future. Your day will come when you can stand confidently radiant in the light of your own truth, without being kept in the dark.
For those of you have seen an earlier version of this poem, I changed a few words to better fit this contest's Tyburn rhyming requirements.
