Nightmare

Nightmare

The light is gone and hid from view

It disappeared one day

And took with it the sun and moon

‘Caused joy to pass away

A glimmer is all ‘twould take

To make the world okay

But now our life blood spills away

And we wait in nightless day

We’ll feast on the returning

Step once more, into the fray

Until that day, we shall march forth

Keeping the nightmares at bay

Comet

Oh my bright and burning star

Some would stay you’re falling

It’s just that you blaze so radiantly

The Earth has turned her back on you

You have a path, a steady course

Returning to give us bliss

Never altering your initial trail

Although we may not see its plan

Some may see a heart of ice

Some may see a trail of fire

I see a journey half completed

And the future yet to come
