Hi SS,

I was put off by the archaicism at first, but on second reading, I got used to it.  I kind of like what you've done.  A couple of notes:

Wisdom hides beneath thy sight
Truth in lies, still truth they pass
She strangles thee in torment's fight

As one becomes thine knowledge plight
A fool declares, thou proof alas!                         really can't figure this line's meaning out
Still wisdom hides beneath thy sight

Darkness looms in wrong is right
All illusions great and vast
She strangles thee in torment's fight

Like a blind man's dreams of vision quite          very forced rhyme; "bright"?
Find no wings in empty mass
For wisdom hides beneath thy sight

Hope long lacking as if now trite,
Betrothed by rage unto thy past
She strangles thee in torment's fight

Till cold souls open in her guiding light
To dance in shadows of innocence cast
She forever hides beneath thy sight
And strangles thee in torment's fight
