Silence
In silence the world will listen
to the thunder of my existence
will they ever know that which is me
or will i fade away as silence glide
will silence enfold me for a life
maybe a past a present stay
or will this silence become my rule
to treat and heal and break my soul
i wish to year your silent words
as they glide over torn and battered skin
will you hear me in this silence
that will keep me locked away
i wish that you could stay in here
and feel the day I have to live
when the sounds of thunder echo
and the silence of new day grow
i hope to find the meaning to you
and find the ceasing behind it all
now all that is left is for darkness
to come and make its nest in my soul
