Darkness

I can hear the sound of Willows howling as Darkness overtakes them.
They all know their Fate
Chopped down in anguish and fed to fire.
Darkness, another night, another day of life.
Then again another day of waiting for what they are to do.
Break out of this cycle, protest for life.
But they take no action -
Just wait for darkness again.
