The Sun Shall Rise

Nightime falls upon the earth, The Evil things shall lurk. You walk out the door in a rage. The feeling keeps calling: "Come to me, Come to me,I shall take you to ecstasy." The one thing that make the pain cease, But you must pay the price. Your soul is what it wants, The high is what you need. So you sell your soul, For the one who loves you most. To your eyes it seems. When you start to come down, You notice from afar, Someone calling, saying; "Come to me, Come to me,I shall take you away to a new fantasy." Your love is what she wants, The high is what you need. So, you sell her soul, For what you think is ecstasy. Only to notice, that she is the one who truly loves. You start to feel the pain from what you see. It's like a knife going straight through your heart. You're wondering, will this ever stop? You see her soul go to Hell, It's all too much for you to bare. So you search and search, For something, anything, to end all of the your pain. Then you notice from afar, A shine of light. Then, you realize what you have done. Only it's too late. The one who truly loved is dead, Leaving you all alone. And the Sun is rising, All the Evil is hiding. So, always remember: NO MATTER, THE SUN SHALL RISE!!

Additional Notes:
I capitalized the last sentence for a reason, also the words Sun and Evil. It was not a mistake. It is meant to put stress on these words. I hope that you like this one, I wrote it back in 93
