Hardtimes

By mysticventures

Hardtimes at the temple keep

Shadows of the night do creep

Darkness woos the heart to sleep

Blinding one to heavens reap

Ageless soul is mired deep

Freedom's price is just too steep

  • A former member wrote: This reminds me of a lullaby...it's soothing in it's rhyme...but the nature of the rhyme, perhaps, is not so soothing. Excellent.
