Whence the dark came
It took with greed
The light had dimmed
And life became grim
.
Whence the dark came
It rushed without care
It became too much to bear
.
Whence the dark came
It came without regret
But do not fret
For a star is bound to burn
The world would soon turn
.
At dawn,
A heart was torn
She realized love was a pawn
Before the day turned to morn’
No time to fawn
She must sing free her life’s lorn
.
At dawn,
She ran to the dark
The cold has grown
To make a mark of her own
Dear, hide your frown
Hide your sorrow
Let your secrets drown
In the death town
.
At dusk,
She finds her voice
in a place that wouldn’t let her breathe
.
At dusk,
She cries against the current
With wounds basked in salt
Singing a sorrowful lament
While slowly drowning
.
