From the depths it calls
To the deep unknown it out to invites
Stoking the flames in our breasts
and pricking the doors of our minds
showing us what we do not know
bringing us out of the darkness
and showing us what lies beyond-
beyond the mist.
breach it and learn who you are
or turn back and return to the night
but choose you must,
and choose you will,
but choose you well
for when you look into the abyss
You cannot unknow
what you saw
when you peered into the box
holding the great unknown.
Regret you may,
regret you will
if either you choose
but at the depths
may he show himself
when all seems dark
to stoke our heart and allay our fears.
