You Stay Silent

Resign from the whispers of the wind
Wait no longer for the arrival of the new sun
Black holes are all the voices contain

Yield from praying to the white clouds
Do not keep vigil for those who will never return
You will only find the excrement of their lies

Forsake the promises of long ago
Do not draw breath from the dust of Angels
You will only be left with a bad taste in your mouth

Persist from standing on the shoulders of the tallest
Give up from stealing another’s dreams
Only a suffered awakening awaits you

Stop listening to the words of those of us who have lost our minds…
We only speak when you stay silent
