When Words Stay Silent

When words stay silent





When thoughts get shrunken,
words remain silent,
When eye are sunken,
the tears gone dry,

When heart burns in betrayal,
love that dear denies,
When beats regress in depression,
passion pays a price,

The whole world comes collapsing,
no weapons, no fight,
Walking as a mere corpse,
the soul loses its might,

Nothing be done, Nowhere to go, 
memories burden the mind,
Darkness, once aglow,
pretends to be kind,

Feel those skies calling
as morning sparrow chirp,
Wings of eternity,
may in time unwind.

This is so sad, Doc. I have felt this before. Trust can take years to build and only a second to break.
