Earthshattering, impending doom.
The sounds I hear shriek out of tune
as they assail my ears.
as they assail my ears.
From the darkness, glint of light,
granting but a brief respite
from mad midnight's crushing bite,
it left me far too soon.
Once again, I cringe in fright,
devoid of most my will to fight,
painting pages, left to right
mind raving as a loon.
Damnation for me, after all.
Stagnation, eternal call.
Pain and darkness, held in thrall.
Dropping deep, braying bawl.
Dust filled eyes, slink and crawl.
Forbidden now, even to die.
Forever more to weep and cry.
Never more to see the sky.
Unbidden, light just passes by.
