A Fight In Twilight

Many tranquil nights, stars scattered past vast lands

Apollo's slumber summons pleasant gusts

And Luna's silver hair with ashen hands

Her children's ghosts submerge in moonlight's dust

The beast craves freedom with each flutter, but

Its snowy wings foretell a soul's demise

A dreadful wail that pierces throughout the cut

The sunshine cries, "I wish to go away"

Immortal beings brighten darken nights

A fallen fighter's struggles gone astray

In time, a pale horse rider's path ignites

"I'm drained", a soul exhales, open wings

Tonight, a new night, try for a new life

The burdens decayed, forever released from strife.
