My darkened dungeon beckons forth
A light has filtered, spewed
Casting shadows evermore
My thoughts have now ensued

Mingled haste has now become
Engrossed with weightless hope
Tangled words on bitter tongue
Still sing a soured note

Shall I linger but for more
Than all the world can give?
Or shall I wish for you to love
and me, to simply live?

In darkness, still my heart remained
In rhythm and in rhyme
Longing wish with baited breath
has stood the test of time

Never more to walk diffused
Eyes veiled now clearly see
The darkened dungeon is no more
Your passion summoned me
