A Peace Beyond
I know beyond the darkness, there's a candle flame that flickers and the darkness is a mantle on my soul.
I know beyond the darkness, there's a peace that yet evades me as the reaper waits in silence for his toll.
But if i hear the sobbing, from the shadows that pursue me and the voice that calls me softly, calls my name.
Then I must turn and answer, tell the reason for my leaving,
tell her gently that it's me, not her, to blame.
