Don’t speak the Words

Here’s the pain
Laughter of the damned
Simple beating hearts
Innocents judged in parts

Who gives out the rights?
To laugh or to cry
Who thus can see
To proclaim the guilty?

Who is the fool
Who cannot see all pain?
Who is the fool
Who thinks he is sane?

Fools don’t you know
In winter and in snow
All torturers are guilty
When their guilt they know

I cannot speak the words
I meant once to say
I cannot deny
What I’ve now to pay

My melancholy is purely my own

Wow. I haven't read your work in a long time. Its great to read some of it again!

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.
