In the silent night, echoes fade away
Only whispers of the wind gently sway
Dark shadows embrace, holding tight
Leaving solitude in the depths of the night
Stars shimmer with profound grace
Yet unable to dispel the void's embrace
Beneath the vast, tranquil sky's sight
I'm stranded in the ocean of loneliness, contrite
In darkness, seeking a flicker of light
Only solitude walks by my side tonight
Sometimes, loneliness is a faithful friend
But tonight, it feels like a soul's dead end
Night, a silent witness to hidden pain
In shadows, I seek meaning in vain
Loneliness, a cold embrace, tearing apart
O silent night, stay with me, don't depart

Llion the Brave Version 2
Her screams diminished as Llion was dragged away from the cell. The stench in the corridor was less but there was still damp, decay, defecation, death. His feet dragged, like a raggedy puppet, the guard either side of him holding him fast. He could feel their individual fingers digging into his scant flesh, leaving their impression on his bones.
