Missing Embrace

Embracing every moment of silence,
The sound so pure.
The low murmur of life is distant.
The riveting echo
Of daily life,
It escapes my memory.
The quiet could be disturbed 
At any moment,
But for now,
I shall sit in the silence
And absorb its simplicity.
Far from the roar of life.
Such a beautiful lack of noise.
If only greed didn't ask for more.

Concealed in Storms

As I stand below this inundation,
Are they tears;
Or are they raindrops?
Only my umbrella could tell.
My feet stand
Above the forgiving floor.
The floor could never disclose,
Are they tears?
Or are they raindrops?
This secret is safely hidden,
Within the storm.

Around and Around

Hopeless circles 
We've traveled in since our dawn.
Lacking the bravery
To stand and be strong. 

To tell me how you feel,
Then to shoot me down.
Just keep going,
Around and around. 

Endless cycles
Of pain and regret. 
I'm tired of flying solo,
Let's make it a duet. 

To deny me the truth, 
To hollow a promise. 
Just keep hurting me;
Again and again.

Synonyms for Bliss

Just one smile from her
Means more to him
Than a thousand of my painfully sheded tears.
He'll care about her for years,
While I'm only a fleeting intrest.

Never will I mean to you,
What, to me, you do. 

Forever I'll be in your debt, 
But never in your heart. 
A million remedies
Could never teach me to forget.
For ignorance is bliss, 
And my life is bliss-less. 

A synonym for ignorance? 
A useful skill I lack.
Your name;
A simple four letter word,
If only it could bring ignorance to my ears. 

Even a being with an entire brain,
Cannot teach ignorance. 
For one cannot un-learn, 
And forgetting is impossible. 

Second Hand Pain

There is no voodoo in this experiment,
Only pain in this show,
A pain that we both see
But only you know.
The scars are shown upon my neck,
The promises we've made become a wreck,
The train we were on crashes, 
And i walk away from you
Lying in the ashes. 

Pinky Promise?

Silence, 
Never awkward 
But filled with beauty. 

Brutal honesty
Feels less brutal.

There is no pain 
Even in the tearful words you cry. 

I feel no need to hold back,
Even with secrets bubbling.

Looking into your eyes,
Never are they dull. 
A sparkle resides within. 

We both know you are beatiful,
And it pains me 
To hear you deny it. 

Don't ever frown, 
Don't let anyone get you down.

Your words have the power to sting, 
But sometimes they raise me higher. 

Could we stay in this moment forever? 
Will you never release me from your grasp?

Pinky promise?
