The Wrath

the anger of the wrath
the energy that drains the light 
out of the innocent
the passive individual 
who is trusting
sigh for the giving
we weep for the soul
of the silent beings
so much noise can go unheard
crowding the minds of many
causing destructive behavior
sending chills of fear 
through vessels and tunnels
seeking comfort in a place
in time where the wrath
cannot grow no more
