Standing on the Verge of Silence

Standing on the verge of silence.

Cold dark clouds
mask the once blue sky.
Grey is my world;
my destiny.
Fear and insecurities gone;
strength on the outside.
Everything crumbles within;
a hollow echo resounds.

Standing on the verge of silence.

Fear is blinding;
bonds are breaking;
a flood of comprehension.
The world is free,
but for a moment.
A solitary moment,
frozen in time.
Healing wounds,
faded scars, and broken promise.

Standing on the verge of silence.

A gentle ache from the inside.
Misery seeps from porous matter.
Beauty fades;
strength weakens;
hope lost to despair;
dreams dissolve to shame.
Once bright eyes fade,
dark and distant,
clouded by rage.

Standing on the verge of silence.

Just beyond my grasp;
the eluding figure
of my past.
Pain,
forgiveness, suffering.
A yearn for silence;
desperate hope wears thin.
They elude eternal silence,
why can't I be free?
