Eve Dawn Breaking

The dawn is breaking The eve is dawning Escaping dark this evening Now truth; dark is sleeping Truth is key is leaving Key to my heart, buried in his weavings Weave dark does, crafting his lies Light lies in discovering my oldest allies But the weight I carry cannot be lightened Waiting on nightfall, my senses are heightened To make it out alive and whole Or wholly separate body and soul This place is poison, slowly killing Escape or not, new places come chilling Chilling thoughts come of my new destination Heaven thought I, for there's no sin in preservation Sin in the staying, curling tightly within Within me hides coward, afraid of the dark Deeper than deep down, it's dark in my heart.
