A Failed Empire
Tammy Soleno |
Everything deserted
Nothing left to stand on
A failed empire forever lost
Snowflakes fall on shattered glass
Everything's gone
No hope
Red and orange flames
Flicker in the darkness
Life suspended on
The ribbon of time
Swings its pendulum
Toward the future.
An endless raging sea;
A path of stars yet to be followed,
Darkness among the gusty trees
In the wind dust,
Feeling it gently flow through
On a dark and stormy night
Mesmerized by the falling rain-
Walk not in the darkness,
Look for the light,
It's there before you!
Farewell to darkness
The horn has been blown,
It's sound flies through valleys
The seed has been sewn
A new day dawning
breaking in the east
Golden showers immerse us in
Away, despondence and despair!
Farewell to darkness and to sin!
Our souls we sigh and pray,
O may it with clasped hands we prove
In the midst of a winter storm,
An angel emerges.
The dawning of a better day.
