Right, this is a super long Haiku! AHAHHAHAHHHAHA! I kept seeing poems about stuff like the darkness and evil one day and it was getting boring, so I switched it up.
title: sick of stupid cliche poems of darkness being evil; it’s damn consistant and enduring/lawl
>when the light goes out
darkness is quick to replace
Flies on loyal wings
>It is feared for it
though it’s the light that failed you
which is hated more?
>be like the darkness
Enduring, Loyal, Peaceful
Light has many foes
>Darkness has but one
Is submissive, yet patient
Don’t struggle – accept
>The light is a fool
Its materialistic
Collects many forms
>Do you remember
Who the angel of light is?
Where does your trust lie?
>In the beginning
There was nothing but the word
And that was enough
>Black is the abscence
What do you see when it’s dark?
For what do you pray?
>The light in your heart
Is of a different grade*
Don’t rely on eyes.
>can the seer see?
the apprentice of darkness
understands the truth
>When the light is there
You witness death and despair
The darkness brings peace
Then I realized that it could also be seen as ignorance and cowardice – hiding from the truth of the world and reality by taking solace in the darkness that hides all ugliness – but subsequently beauty and good things too. But I could see the darkness as a mother in that sense, shielding you from the bad things and always being there for you. Yin and Yang works here then, maybe? I don’t know much about it. And the * part – I got the ‘different grade’ phrase from Skip-Beat. Hehe, a japanese manga taught me english – of course, it was translated, but still…X3 Anywayz, this is something I made one night, the end. I was trying to convince myself too I think?
