Darkness Loneliness surges upward, rivers raised by a rain of woe, Hear me! Crying out on the banks, My breath a sob, mny fears becoming rain themselves! MY voice raising into the night, dwarfing thunder, Frightening away the lightning- a babe's rattle. Water trembles around my ancles, mine eyes see throught his black, Damned Night! Cursed un-light I now call mine! The waves roar, furious against the rocks of shore, Raging 'gainst the chains that bind them, Waiting to escape- to overcome me, A lone man at the breach. I fear not- I cannnot, for I am no man. I stand await awhile, bastard with sword of kind in hand, The mass of swirling violence screams it's lust, My death it wants. It will not have. I am no man- no more. I am proud- I am strong- For I am... But the name is torn from lips, lost in the chorus of rage, As the swirling dark tries to overcome the land. As he smiles. Shinning sword in hand.
