well, first off i must say this is well written. the way you space the words is original. it was almost distracting at first then it forced me to stop and think.
now on to the content. i can't say i agree, completely. i see beauty in darkness. like you were talking about in your story there is a balance to everything. darkness is apart of life's balance. what i see in alot of people is that they want to be the 'light'. (my mom is a good example) they are so fixed on being this light that they deny the darkness in them even exists. when that happens their bitterness and all these 'dark' emotions grow but since they are in denial that its even there they can't control it. then one or two things happen. either they can't take being this happy go-lucky person anymore and they completely explode all of their pent up emotions OR they keep trying to let their light grow and can't figure out why it isn't growing and why they aren't happy and i think its because the darkness in them has completely tipped the scale and they are completely unaware of it. well, that's just my theory and i AM very tired. i'm sure you knew i would have quite a response to this, since i'm really into this dark/light stuff. *sigh* that was a long review. are you happy? good. *pats you on the head*
much love,
