Dark Manipulation

By: Shawn Van Wyk

"Dark Manipulation"

This is how it goes...
It changes normal words into woes
It can discolor the reddest rose
Nobody can explain
All the things it knows
It waits for its moment
To enter the gates
It is so evil
It never stops the wheel
It only hates

What is it?
Who created it?
It destroys everything bit by bit
Who made this bright dark glow?
Capable of devouring every rainbow
I know it is there...
It is everywhere.

To destroy this darkness
Is impossible
Your efforts couldn't mean less
Soon you will feel its evil glory
Soon you too will feel worthless.
This is not new...
It has plagued all of history...
From the beginning is where it grew.

You can beat this dark seed.
All you need is a beautiful deed.
To keep it far away..
To keep it at bay.
Keeping it at a distance
Is not so easy at first glance..
But keeping your cause just
Is the only way to outsmart it.
In this i place trust..
Lest you join the dear departed.
