Lonely is the night
Inspiration, motivation, encouragement for anyone that needs it.
Alone is the night
alone is the fight
Alone is the time
when you feel
Everything at once
When you feel
everything is loss
Escape - impossible
Release - a myth
redemeption is
Nothing
but a fabled fantasy
Thoughts of bravery
are rendered
powerless
Delusions of grandeur
That your failings
Are greater than
All your successes
The twilight lie
Your betraying mind
proclaims
to hold you captive
to keep you down
Lonely is the night
But don't
Give up the fight
See past the dark
to the truth
in morning light
Escape is possible
Release is real
Redemption
is
Everything
