Abandoned by Light - Trepidation

Trepidation


Desperate screams to embittered darkness
Ripped from the throat by oppressive winds
Air stolen from lungs with immaterial hands
Collapse into the earth, regretful eyes dark

With trepidation, steps are taken from light
Grey shadowy clouds coat the enflamed skies
Marking the point where chaos embraced
And enshrouding hands reached into oblivion

The black wispy tendrils of hatred entangle
Piercing the night-time, haunting those who sleep
A spectral abysm that forever creeps forward
Encircling the heart and tightening its grasp

Deeper into the unknown, fragile steps occur
Guided by fleeting lights, and glassy whispers
With trepidation, falling into blackness again
Unable to rise and breath, join the dark eternally

In the dark grey ruins, under a sky that weeps
Night falls upon a dying cold sun that bleeds
This is where the soul flees to die in the dirt
With trepidation, the body falls into the void
