after everything, is there darkness?

all my life, i have been a shallow being:
filled with selfishness, all that is superfluous,
with a belief, not in love, but the promiscuous,
for love is not something my eyes enjoy seeing.
while he walks in stardust - in pale moonlight -
and does not think to look over his shoulder.
he is the candle when the world lies colder
and seeps into the gaps of a sleepless night.
would he be my reason, if i wished to change?
the corner around which i might just turn;
the pyre upon which i would choose to burn -
oh, this absence of logic is so very strange.
