Dark Silence



Dark Silence

Pick my heart up and restore my soul
Damaged spirit but held together by cajole
Cuts pile up and the scars toughen
Not surrendering becomes an insistent mission

I’m a lucky one for I see the rows of dead
Their minds imploded and hands of death
They suffered in silence showing the world a smile
They died without reverence and alone the last mile

The forgotten are those whose minds suffer in black
Disgrace added by the frightened that pretend and lack
Courage is only moral when it faces the truth
Weakness is taught and it’s a brute

But dark melancholy comes from nowhere and none are immune
Damn the frightened for making it a romantic tune
Curse on those left is the reality of the theft
Life stolen by the hand that’s supposed to love it best
