The Unholy Light

We have seen the unholy light 
Glaring red on the darkest night 
No reprieve, no delight 
Misery, forgotten mercy 
No saviour
Til the morning light. 

Then there, the beauty unfolds 
It’s saving grace holds 
Helping those
Lost, misplaced 
Keeping safe, shielding life 
Protecting all that see 
Her holy light 

We have seen the unholy light 
We have gone beyond it’s fierce grip
To bask in love all the loving day 
Protected
Throughout the darkest night 
Til rising, morning light.

Waters Rush

Waters rush

Insanity a must

As the waves come

Crashing down.

No respite

No delight

Harrowing thunder

Is the sound.

Water courses

Forces all

To come with it

Or to drown.

Waters rush

Listen

Listen

To the sound.
