The Hunt Just Begins

The hunt begins where silence 
 ends, in the active evening 
 light, where once there was 
 dreams to hold, and lovers 
 bliss.. 

 The captive mind as wounds 
 to harsh to heal, in the snear 
 of centeries, where only tears 
 fall in vain without a spoken 
 word.. 

 Echos float among clouds 
 of white, lingering it's cries 
 among the best, where only 
 children of today can rule 
 out each, one by one, without 
 the mark of the beast.

 The hunt begins with prayers 
 in vain, with tears falling 
 in each whisper of the night, 
 when shadows are darken 
 deeper without question.. 

 Dreams are still for dreamers, 
 cutting out the mystic spells 
 that control a lovers heart, 
 while only a thought can 
 make the hunt end without 
 destruction..
