Lay In Silence

Sometimes I lay in silence With my hands across my chest Sinking deep inside it Like the day I'll lay to rest.. Staring into eyelids That become an open door Thats daring me provided I let go of life some more... Until theres no more numbing Of my body thats turned pale Or nothing else is coming From my lungs as I exhale... Much deeper everytime I fall Within this lucid state Not wanting to come back at all Which makes me hesitate... Sometimes I lay in silence And I gently hold my breath Until my heart's soo quiet That Im just that close to death ... Terry WWW.WhiteLionPoetry.com
