Darkness
Darkness comes swiftly as the light doth fade.
All comes to this, so why be afraid?
Reward for the dues we so dearly have paid?
Knowledge we keep or a clean slate is made?
Now in this moment as we have all prayed.
Envision infinity, our cards we have played.
So, close your eyes as darkness pervades.
Soon it is over, death won’t be delayed.
Acrostic, monorhyme
