i have been in the darkest depths of despair

shed tears of countless numbers

watched as everything around me flourishes

as i have slowly withered away


the autumn night of life took my soul

and caressed it in its cold lap

the trees around us died

dropped their leaves in the misty frozen ground


although i was alone

i still had the darkness to care me

so bitter, so insignificant, so cold, so painful

but it made me much stronger


my place is here, under the black sun

where flowers, grass, the trees and the light

have withered away in bleak grace
