The gentle falling of the rain
And the whistle of a train
Listen
Do you hear them?
The stars begin to shimmer
And the sky does softly glimmer
Look
Do you see them?
And in dark of night, so deep
In my heart, you’ll always keep
Tell me,
Do you feel it?

Kaleidoscopic visions sing
Alas, the secret longings bring
Enticing, with her eyes of blue
She’ll mesmerize the both of you
Her moon, it shines, makes colors glimmer
As night grows cold, and lovers shiver
Her warmth, a depth that’s never felt
Two hearts, apart, will never melt
Her stare, it holds them in her grip
As evil dissolves this partnership
For she no longer embraces those
Upon her path of unearthly woes

If I screamed, would you come running
Or stand nearby, afraid to face my darkness?
Would you comfort me ,and bring me toward the light
Or would you cower in a corner, knowing my demons would win?
*
Is there a promise to keep, to guard my soul?
Is there a power within me, to take control?
Is there a will in your heart, to make me whole?
Nothing need be said, nor meant to console…
*
For I shall remain silent, locked inside myself,
Continuing to listen to nothing, afraid to hear myself speak
And the sounds within me, will deafen you, but quiet me,
mute me, until the only sound, the staccato of my breath.
