Last Hand Played

Time slowly fades in the
dark moon lit night
The wind howls through 
the silence of the night
As the sound of laughter 
drifts in the midnight hour
These are long forgotten 
memories held within

Where has the time gone
in this instant life
Blind like a lost child
that has no sight
Bounded by chains that
hold me to this world
What have I done to have
faith play with me

The sand of time slowly 
drips in the hour glass
I am silent to this world like
a ghost that doesn’t exists 
With blood stained tears 
Remind me of my past
I can hear the screams of 
the damed ringing in my ears 

The time has come that death 
has dealt my hand 
He looks me in the eye as 
my blood freezes cold
With that wicked little grin
and blood stained lips
He feels that my time has
come to have eternal sleep

Knowing that he had won the battle 
to claim his long prize past due
I can see the darkness swarm 
around my lifeless body
As I am staring at myself before
I enter the dark abyss 
Why have faith played 
My last hand dealt
