Angel Amid Pandemonium
Dark falls and savagery creeps watchfully like a royal tiger stalking its prey
Deceiving its unsuspecting victims
Put under a spell by its glowing, powerful eyes
A soft soul
Sparkling eyes full of intent and wisdom
The true nucleus of eternal goodness
Honey-coloured beams of light flow fluid around him
All-embracing
His nature as pure as the crystal emerald waters of the nearby coast
A pristine stone of charisma and virtue
Like the glimmering waves ebbing on the gritty shoreline
Amid darkness
He is the moon
Radiant and wholesome
Essential for survival
He is far from the surrounding conflict
But takes refuge in an ethereal dimension
A mystic galaxy of ethics and empathy
Yet
Turmoil and chaos erupt like a spiteful volcano
A blazing inferno of wicked inclination and corruption
A battle of diabolical forces
Trapped between morality and depravity
The essence of civilization
Slowly wearing
Loneliness and unease cloud his mind
Loss of judgement paves way for blind emotion
Like heavy rain extinguishing the luminous flame of the candle of virtue
Violence ruthlessly devours every last golden drop of innocence and humanity
Diluting the reason and humanity inside
And the once-noble heart succumbs to scathing malice
Fading the sparse areas of light and warmth
To cold frigid darkness
