*Click More Info for lyrics etc* Hey all, this poem is also dark but freeing at the end, so I do hope you guys like it. It is set to an awesome song by Lacuna Coil Unspoken which I think is perfect for it. It is a bit much for the length of the song, but I tried to make it work. As always please do not claim my work for yourselves, but if you enjoy it feel free to pass on a link to this or to my channel. This one will also be included in my book, so constructive feedback is welcome. Thanks for watching!
Lyrics:
Silenced, you move me beyond words, where they are stolen from me and dissipate into the night, forever gone from me. What use is it to give them credence, when mangled their pureness returns, with nothing to give? My heart I keep far beyond your reach, safely within my embrace, where it is safe and sheltered from your ambiguity for they all are false. As once tis was yours freely in trust, then self indulgence and pride tainted all they touched, and your arms I reject. So misunderstood, I try not anymore, for you destroyed the place instead once held where I cared. Throwing me from one end to another, I reach through an unforgiving air so frozen with no saving edge, and I fall into darkness, where the shadows know my name and they beckon to me. I lay myself down into ashes, where I hide into a secret bliss, unscathed and protected. How I hear your whispers desperately calling to me, echoing in the halls of helplessness, they dress me as incomprehensible. And a rushing wind swirls around my bodice, in sweet leadenness I bury all the memories that laugh at me through your eyes, all long since left me. For here is where you found me, and here is where you leave me, yet tis I that free myself and not you. Should I never have trusted you, or lended myself to the high hope that one could cherish me so intimately as a rare treasure, only to have it ripped from my hands and flung to the ashes? The flames rage inside me of regret, confusion, and bitterness, what I handed you as flawless only to have it ripped and tossed to the ends. Your ears deafen to my cries, and your soul receives me not, still I comprehend not how you believe otherwise? For to yours I heed no more, as what is given should be reciprocated, has not. For what you neglect to admit, is long since have I been gone from you, pushed away as each moment intended for closer hurled me even further. So on this side of sanity I have left to cling to, I regather what you stole from me, and draw myself into this veil that conceals my fragility, so that in this beauty of night I am at peace, and secluded.
