Silent Witness



Consuming darkness bears the blame
like a torch that carries flame.
Decades hold the fantasy
of angelic castles on the sea
And crystal carried wine
a toast to glory as they dined
Unsuspecting of their fate
it was not long that they did wait
Too strong to worry of a storm
or the waves the winds might form
A gentle night what could it be
all thats left are memories
and the treasures taken by the sea
Silent witness to the tragedy
