Melting Windows

Sensing your own senses pinpricked ears
The night is so quiet yet not very clear

The frost slowly melts on windows never cold
Thinking of the whispers you can never grab ahold

Afraid of the fear that is icing through your veins
Afraid of having to suffer life in so much pain

Silence comes from something not entirely unheard
The voice that is nothing mocking you with words

Time is now standing tick tock oh so still
Your sweaty brow is pouring skin bumped in chills

Exploring that very moment your breath can't escape
Vocal chords are melting the words that they rape...

Thank you so much I haven't been so creative as of late so it is nice to hear some praise instead of my own scrutiny!!
