Eternal Friend

In the darkest nights of my forgotten stronghold,
My eternal friend had came to me as foretold;
He had fell into darkness, his soul it was sold,
He had shown me the things so much richer than gold 

In the darkness, fading light, men crucify men
Stones are cast by those who sin again and again 
Eternal friend, my light within, writes by this pen
So stoners therefore wonder where he came and when 

Eternal friend, undying glow, depart from me
I cannot bare to smile again, please let me be 
Undying soul – a friend within – he will not flee
Born of your innocence, begotten of the sea

Spirit of your purity, you put him away 
If you disown your light, your light will become prey 
His voice it rumbles, for him all the people pray
But you disregard him, so long as he would stay 

Eternal friend, fading face, even I once knew 
I was holding to you, you saw the things I do 
Fire blazing from your soul, my judgement is you
Spirit of my youth and the part of me that grew 

Eternal friend, don’t forsake me, let me ascend 
To gather you to me so we both can transcend 
Only one who knows me, to you my hand I lend
And then will I unite with my undying friend
