Darkness swallows up the sky,
Light extinguished, life will die.
A blank canvas of nothingness.
The totality of eternity is a mess.
A burst of light breaks the scene.
Life reforms in the in between.
Blooming in a deadly drought.
Idol hands are sowing doubt.
Years of suffrage ignite,
Counting down the final fight.
Who will stand firm and tall?
And whom will be the one to fall?
My name is Jesse, I am a writer. I post both poetry and mental health pieces about my own struggles and journey on my blog here: https://oneregulardad.home.blog/
