Fall of Day

By dismal silence

Weakened by the fall
Days are done and gone
Condemn none, forgive all
Follow your lifes call
Take it in,
Every last word
Never repeat
Evil things you've heard

Breathe in our ancestors air
We are no better than they
Hear the wisdom they share
This is the fall of day

Weakened by the fall
Nights are cold and long
Darkened sun, forget all
Memories are gone
Push it out
Every last thing
Always rethink
What evil can bring

Breathe in our ancestors air
We are no better than they
Hear the wisdom they share
This is the fall of day

Shattered walls shall fall
Weakness now is gone
Shaking hands, hating all
Hear the gun sounds call
Take me in
One more suicide

Breathe in our ancestors air
We are no better than they
Hear the wisdom they share
This is the fall of day
My tithes are paid
Paid with my tears cried

    this was very refreshing to read....not many write about what they see in the world and how it makes them feel....such as the things unseen but not unfelt...this is different and very original...thanks for sharing....knight
