When I open my heart, this is what I hear...........
The silence, that has shattered the walls
and left it devoid of the passion that once
dwelled within.
I hear
the emptiness as it festers leaving
boils of despair on defunct dreams,
wiltering in the shadows of
blistering emotions.
When I open my heart, this is what I hear...........
The pitter patter of sanity
as it scurries through the
the fading continence of my soul
I hear
the darkness as it spreads
the tendrils of pain, blinding
the hope, the faith of forevermore
I hear nothing.
