Burning Bright


When Heaven took your light from me, The whole world went dark. I do not know where to turn, I need your guidance. Some say it is His will This world is only black and white. In which hell will I stay? I cannot live as a toy. I know only pain in my heart, This is His skill. You can see fury in me, Burning bright in my eyes! I will not bend, I obey my own will. Your life was not His to take There is sorrow always around me. When Heaven threw down it's fire, I fought with only tears. What I knew is now gone, This world has blended to grey.
