The Abyss
I find within the light a darkness
Pulled from within spurned by love
Forgotten warrior now revived
Created by necessity of unforgivable acts
Into the abyss I fell born again
Strengthened by determination
Survived by fire forged by darkness
Intertwining blade into soul
A fire erupted into darkness
Warrior made whole emerged
Solid as stone look for war
Made of necessity from the abyss
Once proud all pride gone
Surviving blade pulled free
My soul lay intertwined for all time
Forged in fires darkness
From the abyss I ride
Upon a bolt of lightning
Into the word made anew
Spurned by love devoid of pain
Revoke all that once created
Upon lightning I ride
Wielding my sword of flame
I found in light the darkness
