Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

The darkness swallowed the last strands of light
Nothing left but a diseased plight
The contaminants it carried spread across the land
Until all that was left was vast, barren, wasteland
The glory it carried before
Never would never truly be restored
But hope was still left hidden in an abyss
An abyss of darkness where anything could miss
Down into te depths if you look hard enough
It starts to show strong and tough
A light of pure measures we see in the dark
It glows slightly and leaves the mark
The mark of a true light, one that never burns out
Even in the darkest of hours there is no need to shout
A light will protect, no matter how bad it is
For it was put there to keep you off the list
The list of eternal darkness, that shows no mercy
Even if you look the devil himself in the eye and curtsie
It sucks your soul bit by bit until nothing is left but a shell
A shell of your body left behind to tell
That life needs a light that never goes out
And we shouldn't look at life and pout
Now back to the plague which was described before
It took out many who did adore
The light that kept them strong
And kept their lives long
It swept them away like a pebble in a current of water
It took them out during an endless slaughter
Until the only light that was left remained in children's hearts
Where they belived in childish dreams that had them part
Together they stood and watched the stars
As one by they veered away like cars
Finally they held their hands together and made one simple wish
That eventually the human race would survive this
Their wish came true, but at a deadly cost
Each one of their lives it cost
The light in their hearts joined together leaving them behind
But their spirits ascended as one of a kind
The dark people left suddenly lost that darkness
And their lights returned but left a mess
The mess of losing the love of children and friends
Something the world could never mend
Wars broke out on all for the blame
But it was everyones fault not one name
Fragments of the lives they had before suddenly flashed in their eyes
Everyone fell to the ground and began to cry
Crying for forgivness and love again
The darkness faded from every man
Peace resided once upon a time
But once again we have lost our light
Wars break out here and there people fight
All of us kids try to raise our lights
But the darkness closes in on us all
One by one us kids fall
Only few of us remain unpoisened by the plague
The plague of death and darkness in this deadly game of tag
We need to raise ourselves above this barrier
We can't be helpless like a baby in their carrier
Once upon a time life was all light
But then the darkness came with it's plight...
