of Dark

of Dark

A Poem by Cpt. Alex Rover
"

And in the clash of Light and Dark, who truly survives?

"
The dark screams as it meets the light
And at its core, she's alight
shining darkness in the 'round
for her, no respite shall be found

Light's relentless shine rocks Dark's storm
once all-encompassing, it is almost no more
and deep down, at its center
Dark screams as from her, memories are torn

She clings tight as the planet rocks around her
Her grey hairs falling off one by one
She despairs as the world gets set to shatter
And the planet, sensing her despair, surrounds her

She cries, realising what it is doing,
She cries, for nothing can be done
She cries, for her darkness is fading
She cries, for Dark will be no more

And she cries as the light sends the last of the world to oblivion
And so Light cements his dominion
As the last fractals of the world settle
Around a black vessel

It drifts along the cosmos
and inside, a little girl like the dark, for that is her name
