A/N I thought of this while reading the poem LOVELESS which In Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. It inspired me to write my own version of it.
Hope you enjoy!
DARKNESS
Prologue ( Poem )
When the battle of dread has reached the endless hell. Even time stops to hear the bell. The darkness descends from the Earth. Consuming this pitiful life.
Act I
The reaper descends from the sky. Its kill, sharp like a knife until its glimmer has reached an end of its life. It's black wings dark as night.
When joy is bought, be warned for darkness has also left a gift. While bringing forth bliss, it leaves a descendent of its pain . The shattered hope enlightens the black feathers of my wings it says.
Act II
Happiness is turned to dread; when life is turned to death, the sign of the end draws you to the killer of light; bringer of dawn.
Dreams of heavenly slumber hath evaded thus minds. As the morrow will be the final light. The end is nigh.
Act III
My friend do you worry? For a world awaits that abhors your fight. Do not be frightened, the darkness has become the final being of your sight.
My friend, you are the bringer of hope. The gift lies through you; it is the forestow of my return.
Act IV
Be known, the fates are cruel. There is no hope, no hero remains.
The weapons cuts through my chest, the twin devils of the reaper to my left. Corruption twists my soul, they say vengeance is for all. Have i endured torment to the point where my story is not said to men? I speak in my own salvation, have I awakened your eternal slumber?
Legend shall speak of my rath but the wind will scoff and laugh. You have the eyes of a devil but a soul of an angel, the water repeats the words.
Act V (Final Act)
Even if this fate is scarred with lost promises. Nothing shall forestall my return. For my wings do not bear the sign of an angel but of a monster. A devil.
To become the stew that quenches this land. To spare the lives, the bloodshed and sacrifice. I offer thee this silent prayer of light, one that can consumes my life. But be warned for thy don't know, darkness is still alive.
But now i bring you my brothers and sisters to the dawn of life with myself. Remember when the bell rings loud, time stops itself
