Quiet Are the Silent Ears-
It's in the cemetery late near midnight
It's at the mall chilling low lit light
Cold silent bodies that can't get up
Stagnated still cold can't rise won't get up
What's the rush hush
Quiet it's still
It's above the clouds around the stratosphere
It's found at the tip of a death mute ear
A warm silent body who can't hear
Stagnated eyes that glow and peers
Where's the hush
Quiet it's rushed
I see that I can't hear
In silence I can't see
My body that can't hear
Seeing out my inner ear
A lush of silence appears
Quiet are the silent ears
