Silence of Him

The Silence of You
The clock strikes
Another hour gone by
Forever lost
In the darkness of eternity.

The rain falls
Lightly tapping  on my window
Softly lapping-
As if it just wants me to listen. 

I feel the surge of energy
Run from my head to my toes
My heart racing
My palms sweating.

The sensation of the blade
Cold 
Hard
Raw
Makes me shiver.

It runs slowly 
Along my neck
Tempting me- teasing
Just begging to be used

I hear the thunder roar
The leaves rustle in frustration
I ruin my fingers along
The handle.

As I dream
Of an imaginary reality
I lose myself for a moment
Consumed with memories

Of You.

I savagely slice my heart
Open
I scream as blood pools around me
Holding me prisoner.

I am lost
In pain
It owns me
To it I am a slave.
As I feel the blackness
Filling my mind
I see your eyes
I feel your heart.

The passion, love
Now untouchable
Then comes
The Silence
