Notes About The Poem

- In the Power of Death and the Depths of Darkness -

In order to obtain true freedom in our lives
Close your eyes and see the light of an angel
Wondering what this life is really all about
That it will guide you to a brighter place without turns 

Thoughts about the night with a last kiss will be my end
As night becomes desperate to sleep 
Tenderly rocked in your loving arms
Seduced by the dark side hiding ghosts roam


Desperation within hopeless pleas, the angel wings are broken
After walking on coals fired inside aches burning 
It hurts so bad, the emotions of losing control
Show me the way love in true heavenly beauties charm

Let's break the chains burning without fire 
In your power shines a beacon starlight 
The pain, the demons leave inside causing our sins
Strong within it's beam pierces through the gates of hell 

I can hardly breathe, in this dream where nobody dies
Forgiving past sins kisses everything better
The eyes are not blind, a rainbow of sorrow shines 
Breaking free from chains of a pain linked curse

Could it be we have chosen exactly the right words of love 
I am not your resistance building castles in the sky without storms 
Born in the republic swept a\way within a dream swept away 
I'll walk with you through the age of eternities golden gate bridge
