From the Deep
Trapped within
By their sin
The people wait so still
And then begins
The horrid end
The one brought by their will
Through the dark,
And damp, and dull
The people wander from the hull
The skeleton that kept them safe
Just as nearly became their grave
A search for sky and history
Lost. It is now mystery.
And in the dark
And dank, and dull.
Grew a city made of gold.
Its beauty great
And hearthstones warm
The lost ones again had a home
But from the deep a darkness creeps
And none shall ‘scape its wrath
They dig too far and boldly so
To release what was sealed long ago.
This darkness born from folly and pride,
Was fostered from light that long since died
and so will fall
The golden towers tall
When heard by all,
Become the whispers from the wall
From the deep
A darkness seeps
Into the world above
All will weep
And try to keep
A hold on their vain love
