Sought in the night, pitch, cold and black, Surrounding wails strung against the walls, Life fading in finding recourse to steal back, The pain of watching as all crumbles and falls. Lying deep in the minds endless void, Spasms indulgent and oft regretted, Hearts sullen in response to with being toyed, In searching for the light to feel indebted. As the shroud of a pale moon rises high against the plain, The insanity of the abyss takes all it desires, And realization that the pursuit has bee...

The first time I saw the sun I saw the face of God, Alive in the light of the endless horizon, The first time I heard music I felt the peace of the world, Sounding soft melodies lost in time, The first time I touched the sky I found the wonders of all, Living inside faded memories, The first time I cried the pain of the world weighed in my soul, And comfort there was held in sweet relief, The first time my tonuge held mint I knew what it was to smile, And find calm in natures simple sweetnes...
