The Ashes

Eternity in sight
Fading
Reaching to the skies
The towers stand hollow

There is nothing
That remains
In here
But dust and decay
Bereaved and crestfallen

Aghast
Astray
In darkness
Pale stones and charred bones
Tell stories forgotten

There is nothing
That remains
In me
But smoke and despair
Bereaved and crestfallen we are

Death
In this place
Bears
Life's disease
Bound
To remain
Remain here
Striving on

The old man said
It is always darkest before dawn
And this long night
Has only
Begun

We see no light to give us hope down in this world of pain and scorn
But through the ashes a new sun will be reborn
A searing light to give us hope down in this world of pain and scorn
That through the ashes a new sun will be reborn
