The lightbulb flickers,
And goes out, dead.
Darkness coats the room,
It's unspoken, but said.
Rattling fences,
Twisted in chains.
There's a cracking of the air,
Another soldier slain.
Underneath the desk,
Our eyes close shut.
A faraway noise,
Feel a sick twist in our gut.
The lightbulb flickers,
And then burns bright,
Like a flame of faith,
In the darkest of nights.
