Before Darkness Falls

I remember sunny days
That seared away my embedded pains

For within those hours
Before darkness fell
And I'd contour myself
Into this shell

I would fondle with life
As I knew it to be
Taking in completely
Her immaculent beauty
Owning again the joy that was missing

Beautiful lie I am
Deceiving myself with scam

Am I to think happiness I'd behold
When once more my dignity
I released and sold

Please I beseech, before darkness falls
And I'm alone with distressing thoughts

When an instant will come upon the night
When I have freed my eyes from their sight

Rescue me from all that I shy
Darkness falls but I shall not die
