Pain
A heart fragmented like shards of glass
Shards of glass each one stabbing
Stabbing pains searing a mind
A mind demented by torturous lies
Torturous lies kept in darkness
In darkness a cry not heard in the solitude
In the solitude of the suffering
The suffering that keeps the light subdued
The light subdued dulls the senses
The senses held tight in a body recoiled
A body recoiled, longs for absolution
Absolution entrusted by enchanted souls
Enchanted souls dancing
Dancing in the light of hope
Hope and dream in the silence
The silence escapes when walls come down
Down where sweet voices sing
Sing into the wind and be carried
Carried off on an angels wing
