Miracle's Shadow

A dark and evil place of dying hopes Walls thick, cold crawling with vermin weeping sound Musty smell induced by acidic yellow soaps Every part of the wasting body darkness had bound Bruised mental psyche which living barely copes Images of past sins like ghost rise and hounds Through a hole in the broken and barbed window Comes a ray of light, miracle's shadow
