Crypt

Captured here within a quiet tomb

Yet not surrounded by the dead

Covered in a shroud of misery

Whispers hover in our midst

Ragged few have shared this consequence

But the choice was ours in a way

Full of hope, yet still despondent

Will light ever come again?

Shout, unfortunate warden

The time for chains is ended

Crawl out from this cage

Feel warmth upon your face

As you step into the sun

This tender breeze

Meant only for the free

Which you’ll not be for long

Your time is done

Dark passageways never end

Only glimpses caught between the

Bars of our cell, moving forward

Yet never terminating anywhere

Bound to the crypt

Darkness fills my soul and skin

Bound, I fall from sin

Blackened spirit, past within

The time for chains is ended
