|
Silence in shivering solitude
|
Obligations pressure for all to bear
|
All the pitiful answers, the innocent lies
|
Can mere words fill
|
The emptiness from which I fed?
|
|
Be gone, oh yielding evidence of greed
|
Safe now in the other shore
|
Behind: The emptiness from which I fled
|
|
Can silence be shared?
|
If so, can the perception of silence
|
Fit into the frame which is represent
|
The unity for which we stand?
|
The confines representing a timeless sacrifice
|
No eye can of silence tell lie
|
|
Silence, yet the absence of sound
|
Does not feed me
|
The essence of beauty alone
|
Fall silent to lingering charm
|
|
Brought forth be the sun
|
Shed light on the emptiness
|
|
What can be extracted from nothing
|
What can be found within the emptiness
|
Be gone, oh yielding evidence of greed
|
Safe now on the other shore
|
Behind: The emptiness from which I fed
|
|
Brought forth be the errors of our ways
|
As is denial so is contempt
|
Introspective to all but one
|
Tear apart the flames
|
No eye can of silence tell lie
|
|
How can I even begin
|
The battle where no one wins
|
From answers I now flee
|
|
Screaming out too no avail
|
Have I become what for so long I've dread
|
The missing pieces
|
Must now be replaced
|
|
What eyesight fails to grasp
|
Is the emptiness from which I fled
|
|
|
