Night Thief
untitled
I am the night thief. I live in the darkness of the night and live for nothing but shadow. They are who I am, my essence. I am not human, not even remotely close. My sole purpose is to steal. I bestow the world with all its shadow. I follow the night around, never witnessing the sun. I collect the darkness from one side and send it to the other, so there may be shadow. Without me there would be too much darkness to see the moon, the stars. Without me there would be too much light to bear. I am the equalizer.
I have existed as the world has. Earth has never been without me, nor I it. That is as it should be. And always shall.
But the people make it hard. They destroy the world, something that is not theirs to destroy. They do not realise what they are doing, that this is not how it is meant to be. I can see though, that they are bent on destruction. But they will learn. Their time will pass like all creatures before them.
