The Darkness Of Death

by O'shauni Duff
(St. Andrew, Jamaica)

Before the end of time
Before the world ceases to exist
All entities, mortal or immortal
Will go to the land of no return

No void will be left unfilled
Night and Day will be no more
From the never ending darkness
The Master of time shall emerge

With him, beast from the blackness
More creature than man
Come to do his bidding
More nightmare than dream

The dead defies the living
Mankind has ran its course
Nature shows its darker side
While Death collects his prize

In the sea of thousands
Only one has the power
Enough to overcome the grasp
Overcome, the Darkness of Death
