About the darkness of life, depression, and the heart's desire for dying hope to live.
This is the land of the starless black,
  Whispering and waiting for motral calls -
Omnipotent Death lurks behind my back,
  As the sunless sky rises and falls.

I stumble through this endless depression,
  Wishing to see the sparkling starlight,
Carried painfully by Love's obsession
  Into the darkest nether Night.

Hope is the Heart's only reprieve,
  Banishing the Dark with fading Fire -
As the Portals of Heaven wait to receive,
  And we fulfill Death's frozen desire.
