Darkness
The world stops as the cold air flies higher and higher;
The blood rushes to the ground,
Spewing venom in its wake;
She taught the world to never forget,
She made sure of it in her days;
Nights pass and the light diminishes in this life;
I can see the angel, the pain, the death and lies through all the smoke;
He wails in his heartbreak,
His life hanging from a noose;
The mirrors spin, hiding the lies, letting him be buried in his mind;
As she sings her song of evil and night,
The sun blackens and falls;
For when the call of the siren sounds, her life is as good as gone;
The blood spills out of the veins, masking her lies, her pain;
She awakes at night and hides from the rest of us,
Never to come again;
I notice the cries, the darkness, the night;
I bask in her hidden pleas;
His cries fill my spirit, his anger my fuel,
The death of all things alive;
I burn in the anger, I die in the light, the will to survive is gone;
Welcome now, come to me,
The Angel of the Night.
