Into Darkness

Take your well-deserved step into darkness
ready to face the crimes
you have committed, to stand trial
for your deeds of dim proportions
None have stood so lonely
as you walk into the wire.

As you walk into the wire,
your dim lights slowly fade
away, passing you by forever,
never to return.
You brought this onto yourself.

Only you have brought this to yourself,
now you are devoid of any
scapegoats, in this valley of dying light,
this desolate plain of existence
in which you personally created to see fit.

You created this lonely plain in your image,
only you and you alone have done this
in your journey into the wire,
I’ll become your eyes, you’ll have no other.
