They fought.
Pale, sun soaked
tendrils stretching
against a distant sky.
Invading the darkness
that permeated.

Struggling to
push aside with
every shallow breath.

Opposition struck,
its star studded cloak
killing morning rays.
Fighting for realease.
Freedom.

Invisible battles
lines were drawn.
Barriers against
an unknown enemy.
Cautious silence.

A Vicious battle
took center stage.
Calculated shots,
careful blows.
Bitter till the end.

And when creation
dareed open their
hidden eyes -
it saw.

A single beam
reaching across
the battle ground.
Arrayed in light.
Heralding morning's birth.
