Dark Story
I met Shadow,
And I thought he was my friend,
But he betrayed me,
And he grabbed my hand
And led me away,
To his homeplace of The Night,
Shadow and Dark and Night,
Brainwashed my heart and mind,
And tricked me to believe
That The Darkness was forever my friend
And I sat waiting,
In a black storm cloud chair,
Bound up in lightning rods
That zapped me and shocked me
Every time I moved,
Waiting for Light or Luminescence
To come and rescue me and carry me back home
To my homeplace of The Sun,
But no one came for a while,
And I began to lose hope,
Still tied up in the electrifying lightning rods,
Until one day,
I awoke
To hear a challenging battle cry,
And I knew they’d heard my cries for help,
My true friends from The Sun,
A battle went on that day,
Between the light and the dark,
From my storm cloud chair,
I could see the terrible battle view,
I saw Shadow fall to the ground
And fade away forever,
I only cried a little,
He had caused me
To become one with The Darkness,
He was the reason The Sun and The Darkness
Were fighting a war,
He had tricked me into thinking
That The Darkness was my friend,
I felt no sorrow as I stared at the spot
Where Shadow had vanished forever,
I only felt worry for the end of the battle to come,
Afraid for the loss that might cost me my life,
But a win,
Unprecedented in the war,
A win that was unexpected,
That shook the lightning rod chains
And broke them to pieces,
That made all the shadows flee in utter fear,
That made The Sun
Rise up in the sky,
That made the darkness hide in terror,
That made the light burst through the storm clouds,
And I stood up and stretched,
My limbs tingling still from the shocking lightning rods,
I saw Light and Luminescence
Running toward me with open arms,
And embracing me with joy and the warmth of The Sun,
And gently brushing away the darkness that still clung to me,
And holding me tightly,
And I knew I was wrong to think my friends would ever abandon me,
My true friends from The Sun,
Because The Light had come back for me,
And The Light had won.
