The Darkest Nights
Today the skies turn dark
And the moon and stars go
dull
I've run out of luck
I await an angel to bring it
back
The life and happiness is
now undone
Tonight i wander lonely as
a cloud
Tonight i write the saddest
lines
They say to err is human,to
forgive is divine
But why has death befallen
my vines
Seated in the dull
moonlight as my candle
burns on both ends
Still in vain my soul tries to
comprehend
Tonight my heart blurts the
saddest words
Words pouring from my
heart like morning dew on
grass
As what just occured even i
cannot grasp
The last of life for which
the first was made
And still my past i can't
evade
Tonight the flowers wither
The weaver birds in the
skies shiver
As a cold chill comes from
the river
I hate that i'm a master of
my fate
So my eyes i close as i await
the end of this date
