Eclipse

Red-rimmed shadow,
Darkening the starry sky.
Ink-black circle,
Snuffing out the sun.

A halo of orange,
Peeks out from the darkness,
Reaching out for the sky.

A moonless night,
A starry sky,
A suffocating darkness,
Wrapped around the earth.

Battle between sun and moon,
Battle for the sky.
Flame-toned lights of life,
Ever-lasting darkest night.

Sun breaks away,
From its black bonds.
Light returns to earth,
The darkness has ended.

Red-rimmed shadow,
Darkening the starry sky.
Ink-black circle,
Snuffing out the sun.
