With Every Pain Plagued Word,
Hope Glimmers In The Raw,
It's Purest Form--Unnoticed,
Shakes Within Every Breath,
Fragile Fingertips Wander Over,
Sacred Scarred Skins,
Cryptic Writing Recoils,
Underneath Smears Of Onyx Ink,
In The Darkness A Hand Lay Still,
Mid-Sentence It Is Silent

Until The Sun Rises Again

The Light Strikes The Pale Blue Eye,
The Rays Guide The Feeble Hand,
The Frail Hand Moves The Quill,
And Writes The Divine Script*
