Mortal War

In time, the Darkness will dominate your mind and body
Daily actions will grow labored and painful
Your condition is critical
And it will take an assiduous effort on your part
To reinstate autonomy

As the Darkness eclipses your life
It will grow feverishly difficult
To imagine realities outside of the one you face
Not only will the Darkness cloud your mind
And color your reasoning
It will demand all of your energies be reallocated
Toward rudimentary functioning
As your affective world collapses around you
The Darkness will do all in its power to convince you
There is no way out, that your ruin is destined
Another false notion, however difficult to refute

This is war, so rise and fight
If you do not
The Darkness will ravage your world
It will splinter your home
Enveloping all that you hold dear
Fight back
If you love your friends
If you love your family
If you esteem one atom of yourself
Or of life, or of anything at all
Rise now
You can defeat this enemy
Wield the words of the Soul of Grace
And war with all your might
Throw yourself into battle
Withholding nothing
And fell these hosts of Hell
If you do so, your inner fire will roar again
But if you ignore the beacons of war
The flames of death enclose
