Stricken

In the darkest hour of night,

Your mind beseeched you.

Early hours of dawn upon your face,

Your heart mourns for you.

Face stricken beyond belief,

Your tears reveal you.

Horror settled upon your heart,

Blackened by the evil.

Mournful mind, eyes settled

Beyond the ground,

Screams of terror nearly come undone.

Weary soul, mind, and heart stricken.

Death upon your doorstep,

Clouds darken.
