A shadow engulfs my vision of earth
transformed from a saphire sphere
floating in a sea of tranquil beauty
to a lump of black coal lost in the cosmos
my destiny foretold this silence
this darkness
I was born to cleanse the universe
of light and hope
cursed to bring destruction
to all of creation
a single tear falls from my eyes
I see it's crystal light and think
'The incarnate of oblivion,
surrounded by silence for all eternity,
is shown the light
which she has denied her heart.'
