Silence A simple wish whispered in the depths of my mind The longing for forgotten hope A heart's heeding musical sound Hate binding like a rope The whispering wind lay silent still Awaiting a terrible fate Now only dawn of night will tell How long I have to wait Time Devastating chapter Lost inside my mind Taking heed of no one Forgotten over time Drift into the moment Losing from now on Darkness overcomes me Until the break of dawn Shadow Creeping, stalking, watching Lost behind his eyes Whispered dreams are talking But I hide behind my lies Love reveals the hope that's Slipping past my life Mired within the hatred Coming from his strife Beauty Song of angel's likeness Glory of the sun Spoken words of beauty Heard by everyone Chirping little sparrow Just before its flight Gives from the heart a message Before bidding them goodnight Calm Loud and cheerful happy Longing for a place To set all fears behind it And keep alone this space Still, serene, and quiet Silent as the night Smiling face of nothing Stands
