The Blackened Soul
By HeadpatSlut
The Blackened Soul
Heartless is the Human Race-
Without a sense of Shame-
Wasted in its own disgrace-
And hollow
all the same.
Lacking truth and sanity-
The people running
quickly-
In Silence there Serenity-
Falling ill and sickly.
Casting out and thrown away-
All that was once caled Pure-
Eternal Night shall rule the Day-
With Death a solid cure.
Within the Human hearth is there-
A slowly dying voice-
And
of it's 'pinion never care-
But make the other choice.
Consumed
in Flame the body crumbles-
And is reduced to ashes-
Downward
then the structure tumbles-
As the castle crashes.
As the
people realize-
All that they've let to come-
And to their horror
and surprise-
Destruction is the sum.
Dividing now the
Spirit breaks-
As God has lost control-
As a population makes-
A Heartless, Blackened Soul.
