Apocalypse

A soul floating
In the wind,
I heard the
Other night.
He whispered a
Forbidden secret
In my ear,
His voice full of fright.

“Listen carefully, child”
He said to me.
“The end
Has come.
The end
Has arrived.
While fighting
A fierce battle,
The Sun God
Has died.

“It all started
Nine centuries back
When the comradeship
Of two powerful kings
Fell slack.

“That instant,
The War of the Universe
Dawned,
Leaving the kingdoms
Heartbroken,
Leaving them torn.

“Now that,
Good has lost,
Evil shall gain;
Now that,
Son of God is gone,
The Dark Knight
Will reign.”

He paused here
And let out
A painful cry
While a tried
To gather my thoughts
With a tear in my eye.

“Listen carefully, child”
He said after a while.
“Destiny has
Been written
But the slate
Has been wiped clean.
There is nothing
More left to say
As time is faster
Than it seems.”
