Guide

by Jared Wesley

Twilight
Shadows falling
Darkness rising...dreadful
A path lost in failing light
Alone

The night
Frightful silence
Ravens caw...hopeful
A guide calling in black night
Astray

A glow
Fortune changes
Wisps flitter...enticing
A raven fades in rising light
Nevermore
​
The cold
Sunless, barren
Fiends beckon...fearful
Screams echo in sweet delight
Forevermore
