With my darkling

So often words, are cheap and thin
more often eyes see deep within
and sometimes we know, we won't win
against a truth that's proved by sin

So many words, are twisted things
the truth we gave to silly kings
who sought the truth that power brings
and never heard songs beauty sings

So I will sing both true and loud
of things I meant and love I vowed
and never cover with truths shroud
the things I said, with my head bowed

Words so simple yet strong and beautiful.
Hark! me thinks I hear singing!
Well penned as always.  Does your pen never run out of ink???
