Silently

distant streams of melodies unseen
too far gone to be redeemed
drifting silently
drifting

what was it that you said
that captured my sense of tragedy
what brought me here alone
crying silently
crying

smothered am I in this thickness
wrapped up snugly in a pain foretold
this is going to hurt like hell
I run to you blanketed in secrets
hurting silently
hurting

suspended in the deepest depth
an ocean pressing in around me
no creature living here other than myself
the water fills my holes, hypnotizes me
roaring silently
roaring

your arms fold over like a venus fly trap
and press me tightly to the very heart of you
I dare not struggle for a day calls to me
when I'll be missing you silently
missing you

in the distance it teases in a sweet, sultry-soft voice
a tinkling laughter, almost childlike in its false innocence
you'll lose him. you'll lose him. honey you're gonna lose him.
I look to you. Knowing you do not hear her.
I die in fractions
silently.
