Wailing
Wailing during life darkest hours
Holding ashes of emptiness
While calling oracles by sacred names
Begging to help you honour your fallen dreams
Rescue you out of the wasteland
And anoint you favourably,
To witness shining days again;
Wailing through nights of thunder
Pledging for sadness to go away
Have chance to light candles
And brighten your life again
Just another chance to bid for paradise
With daily beatific smile
Showing you balletic skills,
While holding on to the crown
And carrying the light with pride
