Final eclipse
Endless night
Eclipse: what if it never ended?
Can you imagine dread day of final curtain?
Living forever the shadow Luna portended.
Is it possible, lose Helios, Ra, Inti's certain
Presence, should Selene perpetuate her Solar union?
Surya, bless us with your glorious light,
Ever warm us, leave us not perpetual night.

Just being kind is enough in this world?
There’s a well-known saying that suggests financial strength is the source of anyone’s confidence; money, it claims, can remedy all inferiority complexes. The notion is that kindness is futile — excellence is the key.

We'z Walking on a Path Ruled By Numbers
This road has felt endless, yet limited; every step tracked. Inching away along this path, I feel trapped. Confined. Left to this narrow passage that may one day amount to something greater. Time is not a concept. Only distance. From start to finish, I laugh and cry and attempt to convince myself that this is worth it. I cannot stray. I must keep going. Every step etched, is a step taken, is measured as more than before. I cannot even recall how I got here. Maybe I don’t even really exist. Just another tick marking off a perceived presence. Of what though? I am just another line drawn. Nothing more, nothing less.

I wish it never ended. Hehehehehhehehe. Loved your Acrostic!
Good work. I think with some of the names you used it could be a good way to introduce mythology or even constellations.
Should both moon & sun be fully waned forever from our perspective, what else besides all else would become waned with them?
Speechless piece of work
Astonishing take 🖤 Left me a bit speechless x
I cannot imagine if a eclipse become permanent. Nice acoustic poem 🙂
Nice work.
