Silence

Frozen . Senseless . Numb .
in the nothingness 
that surrounds me ,
no heart could beat ,
no voice be heard , 
no song be sung ,
a million miles from here it occurred .
i have seen the place of beauty ,
have lived in those days ,
i have seen the voices change,
everything changed .

Its cold to remember,
the chilly december,
when feelings froze in time ,
Its hard to find ,
them back inside ,
and come back like a shining dime.

People change ,world moves,
life becomes a memory ,
time flies , people rise ,
I find myself in a similar quandary.

There's million thoughts running ,
through my head right now,
but this sheet just lie there blank,
somehow.

So i lay here ,
Frozen , Senseless , Numb,
with no fear of Death,
the pain that held my heart ,
for too long,
was starting to fade away ,
and now ,
of all those curses they whispered,
silence-- silence is what i heard.
