Nightfall
N ights sailed through many oceans
A cross many lakes, spreading its devotion
T aking the people by the hand
U ntil a pure light touches its sail's stand
R eaching for the sky so high
E limintating the theft night was about to try
M y eyes gazed upon the peaceful, quiet sky
Y ellowhammers prepared to fly
F inding their way back home
R esisting the pain of the mournful gnome
I nsensitive about the life during a day
E nding it with a hateful sway
N ourishing the seeds of the night
D estroying every speck of the lively light
