Lost



A darkness so deep
Acts upon thou befuddle

Depose withon steel
Open world to reel

Times apart fair
With your hand in my hand
Taking steps in sand

Bedeviled of oblivious thoughts
Unable to outrun the devil

Seeking the light upon this little night
Feeling thy tainted skin on my kin
I hold a goblet of fine gold tin

Slightest thought of demean
Caused to trouble within
We end this wind in powdered sheen
