Sunken light

The light sunk into the earth

Power rose as it did

Darkness stroked the minds of all

Then beckoned for the dead

I seized the moment to try to pray

But there was no answer there

An echo of the memories

Challenged my thoughts in dispair

I wonder this earth in search of light

The shadows I ride

I am truly filled with kindness

But I hide that deep inside

In this dark world

Your heart must hide

An echo of time itself

I put my love and my dignity

Beneath satisfactions shelf

Here I am

I scream and yell

Nowhere am I heard

I fight the wickedness that surrounds

The darkness we call earth.
