Dark side of the Moon.

              "Faith"

    When velveteen clouds
        like heavenly shrouds
            cloak the sky at night;

    When darkness surrounds
        and confusion abounds
            longing for the light;

    When pain in your heart
        tears it apart
            till love seems all but gone;

    Faith shows its power
        for the darkest hour
            is just before the dawn.

faith is a quell
to the darkest spell
as morn becomes midnight, drawn.

See how you inspire, Moonshadow?
