I walk the corridors
deep inside myself.
Something appears before me,
and I say
“Hello Darkness,
my old friend
and nemesis.
You’re here for another bout?
Or is there some other reason
you bother me?
I will not bow,
I will never kneel.
I thought you knew that.
Enough talk.
Choose your arsenal,
and let us duel again.
We are already in the perfect arena.
We even have an audience this time,
They favor you, for they are the demons
I’ve locked away to protect others.
This time let’s not settle for a stalemate,
Winner take all;
the loser perishes for good.
You know the condition
for me to lose,
the ultimate price
I must pay.
Your’s, I expect it to be
somewhat similar.
Now, let’s dance.
Let the duel to end it all
Begin.”
