Haunted Shadows: The Dystopian Horror of Alien: Romulus

Beneath a velvet sky of void and ash,
Romulus sprawls in silence, cold and vast,
Where shadows crawl in corridors of steel,
And hope succumbs to whispers of the past.

The air is thick with breath of death and fear,
A ceaseless pulse in endless twilight’s grip,
Behind each door, a lurking, unseen shape,
Its hunger carving flesh with jagged lip.

The settlers weep in shadows, lost and torn,
Their cries swallowed by endless, starless night,
No savior comes, no light to pierce the gloom—
Just creeping dread and endless, voided blight.

Machines hum dirges under flickering light,
While xenomorphs in silence brood and wait,
Their spawn a curse etched deep in flesh and bone,
A plague that seals Romulus’s cruel fate.

No dawn will break—only screams and shadows,
A planet’s heart consumed in nightmare’s hold,
Alien ghosts haunt dreams that never cease,
On Romulus, where terror’s tale is told....
