Dark Days

a brief glimpse outside

Dark Days

These are the dark days.
Friends won't break your fall.
Cry alone in your room at night.
It is all bleak.'
And bleak is all.

These are scary nights.
Lights won't guide your way.
Lay with those who lie and squander.
Only rumors.
No light of day.

These are lonely days.
Bad men blind your path.
idols sworn, but can't be true.
The heart of you.
They take to task.

Daylight blazing bright.
Hope is too bright to fail.
We cannot let the wicked spawn.
Bury the bums.
Beneath the jail.
