Pray for the Darkness (finished)
By Thorn
The rays of the sun pierce the comforting darkness
That bleeds the light of a new day
This wound in the night sky a bitter reminder
Of promises fading away
Trapped in this nightmare searing floods of daylight
Drown out the last shadows of hope
With sunset comes mercy but after each respite
The dawn comes to tighten the rope
Cry out to be saved
From nightmares relentless
The daylight depraved
So pray for the darkness
Downward the spiral the path stretches on paved with
Shards of promises broken
Endless the cycle the void each day brings
Like the silence of words left unspoken
Dusk casts its shelter a welcome escape amid
Countless tragedy tropes
But brief this forbearance ever ensuingly
The dawn comes to tighten the rope
Cry out to be saved
From nightmares relentless
The daylight depraved
So pray for the darkness
