The Great Abyss

I walk in silence as I defile Chasing circles with a vixen vile Only the shadows know my pain For I walk in silence of slumbering shame With solitudes of the fortress built I walk in silence with a gainful guilt No tomorrows for the sorrows sing For I walk in silence with a sinful sting Tears that build an ocean view With crying clouds and a haunting hue I walk in silence within your essence Quicksand thoughts and projected presence The minstrel plays a saddened song Listening in the deafening silence that I furlong Lonely lingering in the great abyss For I dare to dream for your silent kiss.
