Lines across his face foretell, forgotten times, he knew so well

Shadowed visions haunt his skin, faded, buried deep within

A darkened mind, lost in space, the shredded features of his face

Flashing by like meteors, reaching down into his core

Celestial ebony, blackness of night, knowing he’d never again see the light

Shining, in an unforeseen glow, sightless, he fights, as the memories flow
