The Midnight Vesper

When the light fades out. I give thanks to the day I had. As it turns into night. The solitude washes the sins I got.

The Downfall of Legacy

Legacy is something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past. (Merriam-Webster)

This legacy was ultimate. It had proven its strength throughout the hands of time. It changed dynamically as it preserved its purity. This legacy empowered passion, determination, and decency. It flawlessly danced to the rhythm of the world as it left its print on every stage it had stepped foot on. This legacy stumbled and fell to keep track with the world’s demands.

The world, on the other hand, is very judgmental. It nourished this legacy at one time, yet, it suffocated this legacy at other time. When the world started to be moved by favoritism, this legacy strove to keep up with all the power left in it. When the picture of the future became clearer in front of its eyes, it didn’t stop striving even though it fully understood that no matter what it accomplished, it wouldn’t be enough for the world. It waited in silence for it was just a matter of time before the world voted this legacy out.

…and the world did!
