The darkness overcomes the light

lower me then into the frost    
of my winter grave    
with my soul without answers    
I come from a dark place    
where a child born dead    
in the lacerating silence    
of the indifference    
and the guilty horror    
of a blind humanity    
that assassinates a planet    
    
The shadows engulfs the light    
because there is no mercy    
in who fathered the torment    
to this eternal struggle    
between light and matter    
between good and evil    
between love and hate    
in the absurdity    
of challenging    
a wonderful "Creation"    
by demonic temptation    
    
The darkness overcomes the light    
is not a question of balance    
of Yin and Yang, as they say    
a picturesque theory    
which proves nothing    
only its precariousness    
in the universe of chaos    
and devastation    
where everything deflagrate    
in the last glow    
of a dying star    
plunging into a black hole    
    
The shadows engulfs the light    
in this "birth"    
"copulate" and "dying"    
prisoner of the body    
of desire and pain    
in a pathetic effort    
of this dragging    
in survival    
in the mediocre ignorance    
oppressive claustrophobia    
that suffocates us    
    
Abandon all hope:    
"There is more darkness than light    
in the universe!"    
    
The darkness overcomes the light    
and the clock is ticking    
I forgot the past    
not knowing about the future    
only few moments remains    
for happiness    
and when I cross your sweet door    
I lose myself    
in the deep space    
of your dark eyes    
only then,    
tears and despair    
seem to be forgotten.
