Light to Dark...Did you mean that literally, metaphorically, or either?

insignificance
dead lit
wishing, existing, choking
cognitive fracture flat line
touching, bearing, intercepting
suppressive spatial
space

..........Provoked, Impulsive
......Knowing, Plotting, Feeling
Thoughtful, Hurtful, Just, Necessary
...Apologizing, Thanking, Pleasing
............Dreadful, Responsive
.....................Reactions

.....................Light
............Brilliant, Powerful
......Purifying, Living, Feeling
Infinite, Space, Spiritual, Natural
..Supplying, Uplifting, Engulfing
..............Absolute, Total
.......................Dark
