Sinking in a state of perplexity,
meandering in the hollow depths of the dark,
the dark force draws its sword
piercing through valor,
and soaring above the crowds,
it never relinquishes its goal of retaliation

Hope hides in a small corner,
trying to blend with the darkness of the night,
the brutal murders continue and days pass by

Shivering with the fear of death,
hope gives up its last breath,
and the dark force smiles.

What was left was now what was gone..

When I was taking summer chemistry, an year long course condensed into 5 weeks, I felt really pressured! I wrote this poem during class.
