The End
He knew the day had come
But feared to tell it to his love
The future looked dark and glum
There would be darkness over and above
She stood frozen when it finally hit
Fear in eyes, mouth dry and open
Rooted to a spot unable to sit
To see lights go out and darkness deepen
He gently lifted her rigid form
Shaking with spasms in utter pain
Tried to move away from the coming storm
And the creatures who in darkness reign
A tear fell from her eyes to the ground
The sinners fell towards the faint hue
A tiny hope that love can abound
When they’re ready to pay his due
Silently he moved ahead
Carrying his love towards fate
For time had come for the body to shed
For God is waiting near the gate
A new life will surely form
From the ashes of old that are dead
And their hearts will be more warm
And by the seer they will be led
