Eternal Friend

In the darkest nights of my forgotten stronghold, My eternal friend had came to me as foretold; He had fell into darkness, his soul it was sold, He had shown me the things so much richer than gold In the darkness, fading light, men crucify men Stones are cast by those who sin again and again Eternal friend, my light within, writes by this pen So stoners therefore wonder where he came and when Eternal friend, undying glow, depart from me I cannot bare to smile again, please let me be Undying soul – a friend within – he will not flee Born of your innocence, begotten of the sea Spirit of your purity, you put him away If you disown your light, your light will become prey His voice it rumbles, for him all the people pray But you disregard him, so long as he would stay Eternal friend, fading face, even I once knew I was holding to you, you saw the things I do Fire blazing from your soul, my judgement is you Spirit of my youth and the part of me that grew Eternal friend, don’t forsake me, let me ascend To gather you to me so we both can transcend Only one who knows me, to you my hand I lend And then will I unite with my undying friend
