Alone

Everything is silent
The world is still
As Evil contends
with the greater will
The air is black
The sky is dark
A silhouette cross
Upon a rock
One man struggles
For every breath
His enemies cry
For his death
The sins of forever
placed on his soul
Each moment he nears
closer his goal
A flash of light
Across the sky
The empty void
consumes his cry
Broken and beaten
He tries to pray
His reply is nothing
His father turns away
