A poem about the darker side of humanity.
Light touches our carefree hearts.
We are surrounded
by the ones we trust.
We are eternally protected
by a wall of strong, intense love.
But what will we do
when this protection
lies in ruin?

Evil glares are cast
in the shadows.
The clamor of swords
shatters the silence of the night.
When battles rage on
who will find the fragile peace
that lies hidden within
the dark veil of death?
