Collection I "In Darkness"

Fade To Light (A Dark & Distant Dawn)

Though we are now shrill and filled with fear

And though the Dark Dawn falls and draws near

Shiver not for there is light

Brace and rejoice for life is still

And though we are now still not that tempered steel

Of which had in old times hoped to feel

Sometimes weary and felled by pain

Hope not to die for there is nothing but light

And there shall come a day when all our sins lay bear, brother

And there shall come a day when all our sorrows are drowned away, sister

And there shall come a day when all our chalk is exhausted, father

And there shall come a day when all our wisdom is retrained, mother

And though those days may seem long past

And though others may believe that time may be aghast

Find tempered footing for that time, it hath not yet passed

Be still, give way, for we are young

And we are early in times of grey

Where light and glory doth fade away

But do not fear for it hath not yet lost

The light, it rises and builds with fury

And though we hope for days of dream

Where Dawn of Darkness does not yet gleam

Feel the fire that burns the skin

And fear not the end for terminus be not our kin

Rest now your weary heart for there is sin

Rest now your weary heart for there is sorrow

As dark will soon not give in

Though it fights and remains, to not give in

It fades to light for light shall win

It fades to light for light shall win

-J.Z. Sherrington, 2013 (Age: 16)

The Dark Dawn

Darkness gathers and now my war begins

It shall not end until my final breath

We are the Eternal Knights who stand on guard

We are the shield that guards the World of Man

The vigilant protectors that defend and avenge
