The Lugubrious

We are the faceless. We are the unenchanted.
We roam and roam and roam and roam.
Face us and confront us,
find us for we are the lost.
Close your eyes and dream of us, open your eyes -
See us.
You can't ignore us, we are the nightmares, the fears
the tugging heart strings, at your back, in front,
Lingering above you, trailing beneath you.
We're not unbeatable, take us on,
Give us faces. Enchant us. Share with us hope.
And we'll give you peace. Defeat us.
Show us a smile, we'll show you ours.
