| The sleeping sun
Failing to rise Sending the forces of darkness ahead Onto victory The dwellers of light are dying Shredded by waves of darkness Slowly finishing off the good Eternal night has come Helpless light bringers become food for the growing mass Blood splatters the moon Turing the little light left red The color of death Pouring on creation �Where is our God� several exclaim while others turn From their beliefs to the darkness As the seeming last of the light is converted One person stands to the darkness Fighting it The last of the light The last hope for peace He fights valiantly killing those who have sinned against the light Freeing those who have turned Converting those in doubt The wish for light growing Soon a final battle arrives Both evenly matched armiesface off Many of both sides die Brother fight brother Friend against friend Turing the ground red Sparks fly. Finally the finial darkness shows itself Once the leader of a seemingly innocent country Corrupted by greed and money He was once the purveyor of light The king of the sun He raises his staff The moon is extinguished The sun of despair rises A black orb among the lighter sky The hero of light rises above the battle Facing off against the King of Darkness Blow after blow is matched Neither with the advantage However darkness eclipsed the light And mortally wounded the hero With the gathered energy of his forces he was able to pull the key off the King�s neck With his dying breath he awakened the sun The sun rose destroying the orb of despair The followers of light rose up and destroyed the darkness The king dissolving called to the darkness to protect him but without avail Darkness has no ally It left him to die. The dead hero, his body in shambles Was lifted to the sun Becoming immortalized in the sky Becoming the sun Becoming light |
