The Depth of Silence
A silent depth drags me away
Underneath where nothing remains
This cold abyss closes my eyes
The silence gained is a loss deified
Patience wept and I awoke
I can not care, but yet I still hope
Unconscious eyes watch my descent
I whisper love so truth can ascend
Crucified in ambient dreams
My whispers reach, replacing the screams
The lonely dark echoes my words
If I don’t care, then why are they heard?
Deepening this painful abyss
The hatred comes, as does the eclipse
My eyes are closed and I descend
But I awake with knowledge to send
The silence dies as I hear my words
The ocean sings and takes all my hurt
This cold abyss is warmer than life
The silence fought is a heart deified
