There's a song I sing
But no one hears
It's stuck inside my own ears
As I silence still
The dew drop rose
Falls into the water
It gets carried away
On an ocean breeze
And I'm reminded still that world hasn't stopped
To grieve my loss of honor
I'm reminded of the song I sing
Silent as the trees
The sky's turned black
The rose has tumbled under
I hold my breath
Afraid I might drown
As my soul gets weighted down
As my soul falls in the water
As the world goes on and on

Our doubts are traitors,
And make us loose the good we oft might win
By fearing to attempt.

Great poem. Can't explain enough how moving this piece was.

Thank you, Hidden Sparklez. Dark Passions feels so lonely. Is it just me?

Great stuff hon. Wonderful imagery depicting that hopeless way we all feel at times, so alone....
