Dark Side of the Moon

My very first poem, can you figure out what I'm talking about?

The Dark Side of the Moon

Walls of steel line my path
And in vast gaps I see my soul
This place and I are tools of wrath
And in this space darkness unfolds

All my life I struck
As a soldier of lightning and sky
Beneath my feet I crushed
Worlds that saw through our lies

Marching with my brothers
Identical in soul and desire
We swept through the stars and smothered
Those who would oppose our empire

All my life I served without question
Enforcing my master’s will of oppression
But now I have a confession
Of regret

I regret my whole life
I regret the slaughter, the destruction, the meaningless strife

And now, as I walk the halls of this prison
I hear the battle raging
And I know my time has come

A new hope has risen
Our tyranny is breaking
And with our death, comes freedom

It started far below
A distant orange glow
And I knew it was the fires of hell
Coming to reclaim her own
The fire began to swell
And seared through my bones

Here is my grave
Here I die, on the dark side
Of the moon

must be about some kind of war game.
"band of brothers" type.

Your description and imagery are very good.
Nicely written.
