The light fails, The cyclic long decline of dusk Belongs to us again. The ever neutral sun has gone And calm calamity cradles the earth.
The darkness In indifference ghosts in. The cold and never-found are here, Still clinging to unheeded hopes That diminish and dissolve in these quiet nights.
How many Hurt unheard in the hidden spaces? The dishonored die daily, Failing the deadly demands of life; Those who cannot conform.
Stripped of safety, Tears freeze on frightened faces, Hunched alone in friendless places- Yet feeling and being as you or me Who have all yet nothing when we turn away.
