Let the Silence Tempt Me Again



Deep in every passing time
Destiny,
A game they called
 is about to end now.
Thunder of tears,
 surely will sink
realm of hope,
 crawling underneath reality.

Those musical humming of notes
revolting,
Screaming,
 destroy my being.
Slowly hurting me
 so much.
Now that you are gone
Thoughts about you will be forgotten.
Long enough.

I am half-crazy
loving you
but I, regret don't.

Then go,away,
and never look back
I let you go
I will
I
Finally
Set you free.

Then I run,
to the never ending woods
coz fifteen minutes from now
Worms will soon rot your flesh
 and be buried six feet under
Bugs will guillotine you.

As the invitation has come
A long beeping sound
Long enough.
A straight thin green light.

Deader than the dead I mourn.
Thy silence tempted me again.
Long.
Enough.
