Twilight Implies Plight

In the heart of darkness, life starts poor,
A flicker of hope, but nothing more.
A world of shadows dreams hard to suppress,
Yet in this chaos, there is a journey to success.
The story goes from poor to rich.
Forever told is a tale of grit to switch.
Through trials and tribulations, we strive,
To break the chains that try to deprive
In the depths of hatred, we find repugnance.
A bitter taste, a venomous dance.
Scum of the earth, with hearts so callous,
Living amidst us, spreading their malice.
In the depths of the drain, darkness prevailed.
Where forgotten dreams and hopes were jailed,
A place where light dared not tread,
Where forgotten souls had been misled.
In the realm of shadows, where hunger resides,
A soul so weary, in the darkness, abides.
With weary eyes, it scans the barren street.
A heart that yearns for sustenance to eat.
In the realm of dreams, where stars align,
A luminary graced the stage with divine
With shimmering sequins, his armor of might,
He wore glitzy gowns, a mesmerizing sight.
In a world of laughter, where jesters reside,
There's a man who conceals what's deep inside,
With a zany facade, he hides his true face.
A master of comedy, full of wit and grace.
