Truth strikes home once more Of loneliness everlasting Thrust deep into the tattered heart Of this lost and lonely soul So much pain has the shadow suffered Too much loss to bear such sorrow This lowly poet has fallen into shadow Once more, never again leaving His dark and final resting place No happiness shall ever find him Nor love ever to call his own Forever shall he lie in utter ruin Endless atonement within the hell Of his very own creation As the shadow lies grieving at his plight A prayer fills his tortured soul A prayer long since forgotten Begging for release from this pain From his unending suffering To silence those venomous voices And to end his agonizing heartache May death finally bring him home To the place where shadows roam Where he may finally find peace After an eternity of turmoil...
