The Black Cloak

a black cloak surrounds me
slowly at first
then quicker seeing the lights retreat
it hurries to cover the land
it hasn’t much time
the others will come soon
they will brighten it
it starts to fear
its own darkness settles around it
the fear rides screaming skies
the lights are coming!
they are slow too
first is the big one
then littler ones
but they all keep it brighter
the darkness screams again
trapped by its own will
but no,
the everlasting battle does not retreat
at least not soon
my eyes start to droop
my thoughts are slow as well!
i drift into unconsciousness
i wake!
the darkness is losing
being chased from its territory
the lights pursue it
then the brighter one comes again
slowly it rises
filling the valley
by soon rays of color surround it
also chasing the darkness
what’s this?
i was dreaming too far
the darkness has passed
the sun is high once again
