This is the last one I post. BTW, I got promoted in Elendor after this! Theya sked me to do a sad one

The daylight draws to an end,
Light on the h’rizon bends,
And I am left alone.
I see the darkness rising,
The silence so enticing,
And I am on my own.

Once the dream rang brightly,
And the song sang lightly,
But now the time has gone.
For all the dreams are gone now,
And find them I know not how,
And all the time is gone.

In the once gold meadow,
Now there hangs a shadow,
And the calm has all fled.
The bird that sang so sweetly,
Is now gone completely,
And the peace all but dead.

All around the darkness rising,
In fire and ice baptising,
I see it on and on,
And there is no beginning,
And there will be no ending,
All infinitely long.

For others it is morning,
And the day is dawning,
But for me it’s but a warning.
And in the darkness rising,
I see no starlight brightening,
But night’s cold grip is tightening.

Once through a glass darkly,
But now my eyes they do see,
All about is cold.
And as day is dawning,
Only I am mourning,
Forever on my own.


I couldn't end it cos the song looped in my head.

I used the line 'darkness rising' and a bit of the melody to give me a tune for this one, that's all
