somebody's dungeon

0 posted 2002-11-15 10:51 PM



Silence now pervades the halls
listen, soft the heart does call
with gentle beat, a loving sound
while quiet now is all around.

Hear and feel the lack of noise
the whispers now have a voice,
in breathy sighs now I speak
of what I know, of what I see.

An angel I have seen this day
in minds eye, though far away
with golden hair and eyes of blue
my precious, how I'm missing you.

I've also heard in dinless pause
silent cries, I know because
even though they were so slight
I felt the tears upon, alight.

Now within this mothers heart
the sting, the pierce of guilty dart
but alas, I'll still stand tall
I've not the option now to fall.

I'll always listen within the quiet
though sometimes the feelings riot,
rage against the futile past
I'll ever listen until the last,

message sent upon the wind,
comes to me in lack of din.
