Elegy of the Damned

Lament and bitterness are held for us eternally

In this dark lake of burning fire;

And where was God in our lives all these years,

Away or hidden, lost or forgotten?

We never had the chance is what we say,

Though we both know that is only a lie.

How can it be that we missed all the light,

As now we know true darkness and toil?

But now life is late and doom is everlasting,

And all we have to ask is why.

Perhaps we never saw what was meant to be seen

Or were we just sanctifying our thoughts?
