With this fall (I fall…) great grey clouds covered the sky

Dimming the light of sun, muting stars and crescent moon

Lost inside the world of gloomy, haunting shades

Descending into this abyss of human soul



In this dreariest of nights 

Time can draw out like a blade



And yet Her grace shines through

Through me, and the brooding clouds

And if her light never falls on me

I’m content just to feel the lack



And this fall set requiem for my way

Away from other’s paths, I turned to desolation

Away from other’s thoughts, timid and surpassing

Away from the others, beyond caring



In this darkest of hours 

Time draws out like a knife



The reflection once whole, now only a wound, seeping hurt and loss

The image once so bold, now only a scar, dry of hope and light



For all things ought to say, left unsaid

For all deeds ought to do, left undone

Be with me now…
