Endless Night

Written by: Vetustas Quaero, Allo, the Lightning-Rod

Addressed to: Everyone


Where has the starlight gone?
Dark is the day
How can I find my way home?

Home is an empty dream
Lost to the night
Father, I feel so alone

You promised you'd be there
Whenever I needed you
Whenever I call your name
You're not anywhere

I'm trying to hold on
Just waiting to hear your voice
One word, just a word will do
To end this nightmare

When will the dawning break
Oh endless night
Sleepless I dream of the day

When you were by my side
Guiding my path
Father, I can't find the way

You promised you'd be there
Whenever I needed you
Whenever I call your name
You're not anywhere

I'm trying to hold on
Just waiting to hear your voice
One word, just a word will do
To end this nightmare

I know that the night must end
And that the sun will rise
And that the sun will rise

I know that the clouds must clear
And that the sun will shine
And that the sun will shine
I take no credit for this poem, for I found it somewhere else, yet every
word of it speaks for my heart. I've never known the love of a father,
but I have faith, that someday the sun will rise. It will rise, and
shine upon my life.

~Allo~

Penned by my hand on the 3rd of Miraman, in the year 382 AF.
