Fall the Night

Fall the night upon me dark Naked born this journey embark Of friend or foe as yet unknown Time will tell in deeds be shown In shadow times when virtue fades Within a soul love does degrade All around in greed and pain A girded heart with taut refrain Fall the night upon me dark Tend this weak eternal spark Battle scarred and scarlet stain Upon this hallowed ground remain

This is definitely going to my faves. I love the structure and rhyme patterns, but even more, I love you word useage in such a classical style. A 7
