Lightning, in the distance, flashes
With water below, the fury clashes

As she lifts the veil
Awakening morning’s light
Freedom is given
Her flocks fly hurriedly by
Before darkness reigns again

A candle lit, for empty tombs
An angel watches over gloom
Sheds her light in darkness, shine
Let spirits wander, not to pine
From out their corpse, they will flee
Their search, to find serenity
To rest their weary, ghostly form
To rise above the laden storm
Of humans, wandering, so lost
Who vilify, but at what cost?
Then drown their sorrows, lest repent
The blaming of, they don’t relent
They look away, and do not hear
Laments of those, so filled with fear
But they who wander, do not stay
They dare not waste another day
Instead they fly, their spirit, high
No longer tethered, they breathe a sigh

When the dark rolls in
And swallows the light
I look for the answers
Oft found in the night
Seeking emotions
Finding the pulse
The heat of a moment
Seeking results
For the ebony sky
Sets my heart on fire
As it opens my soul
This, my one true desire
