It came riding in on a black stallion in the middle of the night..
Silent, deadly and most of all suddenly.
Climbing off the horse, the rider came to bring only sorrow and pain.
The rider picks up a log, wide and bulky, with exceptional strength.
He turned toward me... hatred in his eyes.
I hid my face, scared for all who surrounded me..
He lifted his weapon above his head and proceeded to strike me.
My bones, crushing with every hit.. shattering, splintering my bones.
The real damage, however, was much more painful..
Taking your life.. he crushed my heart.
It shattered and fell to pieces, never to be repaired.
The rider rode off, leaving tears and pain in his wake.
I begged for him to stop, to bring you back..
But he ignored every plea.
There wasn't one soul that wasn't affected..
The world was turned upside down by a rider in black.
Pain his goal, succeeding with flying colors.
You're gone.. the rider has hidden you from me, from us.
And in your place, the rider has left extrusionating pain.
