After Dark



"Rays of the sunset,
Where the fierceful past chants,
Like in the whirlwind  at the shore,
Sparkling at night and soaring apart.

Boasted by agony,
Where failures of success starts,
And a never ending chaos,
Where misery surround at night.

Fight like a wolf,
Shining like a star,
Dust in the wind,
Where two edge sword exists.

Body is just an adornment,
Talent is a kind of shield,
Wisdom is a weapon to breath,
Where even a poison remember to left.

Lyre of the voice passed as a sorrow,
Where dart of arrows hit the heart,
Shimmering spells of truth,
That slash and bruised a soul of trust.

Tombstone of deadly spells,
Makes even lands and mountain move,
Where nightingale can kill a thousand miles,
Where tounge is the edge of a sword that lasts.

Shining so bright in the dark,
Where darkness surrounds,
Light came in from the sky.
Gaving breath to the heart to remain alive."
