Beauty In the Heart of Darkness

Beauty in the heart of darkness

Walking in the crowd
Clothed in a shroud
Shouting all aloud
Not minding if it's allowed
Wanting to be proud
Never to be cowed
It's beauty in the heart of darkness
Swimming in the pool of gladness
Who can rid it of its sadness?
Or who can cure it of its madness?
When faced with barrenness
Ever craving for sweet melody
Never praying for a tragedy
Seeking endlessly a remedy
To all forms of malady
