Ballad of the Midnight Gloom
Dark figures followed by dark streams
In the imagination of all my dreams—
Haven’t, it seems, been hear before
In the Midnight Gloom décor.
Flower of poison, seed of sadness
Laced together in the truth’s bareness—
Sounds like another day of sorrow
When the Midnight Gloom moves onto tomorrow.
Wolfs of sacred packs, climb down from their caves
Speechless and silent as they pray—
“Let us today forget the past,
And let not the Midnight Gloom last.”
Little tales of sulking creatures
Once with dull or striking features—
Don’t understand that when they fight
The Midnight Gloom crushes out more of the light.
When the birds start to sing, dance, and play
And they the fresh flowers fill the scene of day—
And when the full moon finally does rise
That’s when The Midnight Gloom dies.
