Fading Light

One will stand with the light
While the other will fall to darkness
They stand face to face, nothing alike
But oh so similar, The worst of enemies
And yet the best of friends, their struggle the same
Their choices couldn't be farther apart
this much I tell you, their fate is set
Their past behind the, they stand to fight
Time stops for their last meeting
As they cross blades, as enemies, no longer friends
To the death they fight, pushing to victory
The earth below, the sky above, the only witesses
To the final battle, that takes place in between
The world bathed in light, consumed by darkness
Blood spills, and tears fall, as climax nears
The light fades, as darkness grows
Hope falls to despair, as light falls to the ground
With darkness all around, eyes close one last time
As both friend and foe say goodbye, one last time
Their fate is set, as the world turns black
Hate and despair take reign, as the angel falls
As darkness consumes and corrupts, both mind and body
Life distorted, mangled and crippled, death inevitable
This is the end, with no beginning, as life fades away
