I would describe it as an invisible darkness

casting a shadow, a blinding black

guarded by hope, my soul is kept from

the bloody claws.



Look beyond, what vision lets me see

time after time, unneeded misery

holding tight to my dreams

I own no price for you

I grip them tight and hope for sight.



Open my eyes wide to see a moment of clarity

confusion gone, it's in your hands

your turn to ask why.



(Solo Hamm Schuldiner)



Life is like a mystery

with many clues, but with few anwers

to tell us what it is that we can do to look

for messages that keep us from the truth
