By and By
Dark is the night
In faith's lost light
Deep is the daze
In this dark maze
Sleep brings no rest
In crazy fest
Empty the feel
In lusty thrills
Gone far away
Surreal end play
Lost in lost tense
Heavy lost sense
Drifting with tides
Of crested pride
Sorry sad sights
In loss of light
Pride peoples form
In murky norms
Too late this brief
Of gloomy grief
The way is blocked
By empty stock
Endless the moans
Of dying groans
Strange voices hurl
As madness swirls
No escape then
From where and when
Even death shuns
Our failing grunts
Time now for time
Mad echoes chime
Love cannot reach
Where nightmares beach
By and by now
Hope fades somehow
Nothing to feel
But empty deals
