Duality

Poem no. 16 | Light's Demise

Born in blood,

Born in sin,

Born from mud,

Wicked within -

Our souls once so pure

Found to light a cure -

Darkness to secure,

Death to ensure.

We have died in flood,

We have died in blood,

For sin we have craved,

But we were saved -

Life on us was engraved.

We have a second chance

To enhance

Our life's dance.

But we have stiff

To remember

That if

To sin we surrender,

Darkness will return,

Our souls will burn,

For

Light's demise

Always comes with a price,

For

Devils admire

Our shadows of desire.
