The Beginning, The End

By Arcum Leonard.

I am once but twice.
The gods have seen me otherwise.
Soon from it will begin, it will end.
At that time, I will be your enemy and your friend.
The shadow lies behind the light,
The darkness will then bring the plight.
Doom shall befall on all,
Doom shall come to Eor.

I am the shadow and the rays.
Before the gods have even seen better days.
Soon it will start to light up, it will cease.
I shall do whatever I please.
The light shines brightly at the shadow,
The darkness will eventually follow.
Doom will be gone,
Where doom is born.

I am all of everything but also none.
What the gods have never done.
Soon it will disappear and be gone forever.
I shall rule with my powers over those who never.
The shadows and the light shall stay together side by side,
While the darkness will stop the tide.
Doom will continue again,
From where it all begin.

My name is not forgiven,
Nor that of the forgotten.
Besiege those who did fail.
Begone those who did wail.
My soul is stretching to reach its destination.
To where there is no absolution.
To where perfect is never perfect, no longer perfect.
To where the wrong has not a single defect.

Good can be evil, while bad is not always the devil.
Once more, twice before.
Birth brings death, the only ones they have.
The future is too few. The past is too new.
What has begun in the future, is the continuation of nature.
Where it all be, no longer it is free.
Trap within the circle, death or life,
Trap within the universe and you'll strive.

The elements of death and birth,
A world of hate and love.
A time to link everyone's heart.
A time for all to depart.
The hourglass keeps running lowly,
The clock ticking away slowly.
Everything will start from the beginning,
Where there is no ending.

This is the story of the world where it happens before aeon.
And this story will continue on and on.
The returning of the cycle,
The imperfect circle.
The gods fear my presence,
For they will lose their essence.
May it be that all will die.
May it be that none will ask why.

The Beginning, The End.
