The Darkest Hour

Before light enters your souls your darkest hour will come the grottoes of your mind will be covered in shadow Yes, I think that you will find it difficult able to find peace when black ink night surrounds you The dance,however is yours to try You must deal with the realities of night and day if you are not able to play the game Then you may falter in your steps I believe that light can cut through darkness and that your eyes will see A phoenix rising from the ashes
