Passion Flower

A million voices fade away As I close my eyes & embrace the silence In a silent haze of fists ablaze Love spirals before it hits the ground Shuffling through a montage of broken hearts & hollowed nights Tip-toeing across a sun drenched field of lavender & sage Trying not to engage in a war of words Sifting the flour in hopes of finding a diamond amongst the cakes Till finally I fall captive to the hands of spring Searching for something only loyalty can bring.
