Children of the Light

just a concept i'm working with right now

There are no children of the Dark.

Creation itself is an act of Light. 

But the Dark covets the Light. 

And so it takes and corrupts

And mutates the Light 

Until it becomes a mockery of what it once was. 

Which is why the children of the Light 

Must be protected and guarded. 

The Dark ever searches for them 

To exploit and convert them

To twist and to carve them 

Until they are no longer children of the Light 

But wraiths of Darkness.

Wow really good poem here! There is a great flow and message here! Great write

[Patrick]

wow, real depth in this and writing which presents a message, 'dark covets the light' - attributing a desire to something inanimate is a brilliant swish of the pen.

I wish I could be a child of the light, lol. You made them sound so delicate and pure... like virgin snow on the frozen earth in the middle of January. Great work.
