Have you ever just wanted to hide?

My sanity has crumbled Under the weight of the day If only that old morning sunrise Could just fade to black...and stay 'Cause, if darkness conceals And emptiness heals I'm gonna be alright Ebony melody....Whisper to me 'Til I'm lost in the song of the night Oh sweet refrain of the evening Cover the carnage...she made Give me a reason...for being.... So my hurt won't shine in the day And if darkness conceals And emptiness heals I'm gonna be alright Ebony melody....Whisper to me 'Til I'm lost in the song of the night Come soft shadows... sing with me My pain has perfect harmony Come soft shadows... sing with me My pain has perfect harmony And if darkness conceals And emptiness heals I'm gonna be alright Ebony melody....Whisper to me 'Til I'm lost in the song of the night.... Still lost in the song of the night Copyright and all rights reserved

Through darkness comes light and we shouldn't be afraid to take that journey through, even if it is a long one... A very expressive poem and beautifully written, Chuck.
