Black Night Silent

Screaming at the night, questions it couldn't answer
All that it shouted back was silence
In the black of the night the end came
Bringing with it the death of my soul.

Blinding emotion, crippling fears
Hands shaking, raised towards the sky
In desperation I search the darkness
Still no answer from the blackened night.

I awaken to the sound of the dawn breaking
A painful sight, the sun piercing the clouds
Shedding light on my misery and despair
A reminder that this was no dream.

Blinding emotion, crippling fears
Hands shaking, raised towards the sky
In desperation I search the darkness
Still no answer from the blackened night.

How do I move on? I plead with the sun
It's rays respond no more than the night
Leaving behind everything I once loved
All that remains is cold, black & everlasting.

So begins the journey to find what lies beyond
A painful step towards what might be my last
I can't foresee what is to come
I know only, it is no better than the past.
