I know of hell
I know of it's being
It's power to keep
The dark shadows.
I know of that place
For I have lived it
Been a part of the sewer  
To come out empty.
The power of it calls
To those in despair
To those that cannot see
A ray of hope.
To find the tears comfort
Their small joy's pain
It takes their vision
And dooms them this way.

This is well written Michael...
very well expressed darkess...
it has a sad cryptic beauty about it...
take care
