The Sounds of Silence

The sobering sounds of silence That's weighing heavy as it nears The hungry breath of mortal death That's preying heavy on my fears Now terrorizes heart and soul Clouding my weary eyes with tears No going back when all turns black Shrouding my weary days and years

Thanks Mr. Wolf, you should read "In the Dead of Night" on page 8. I think it's one of my better spine chillers. I appreciate the feedback my friend.
