I'm full Devouring eons of blank air Devoid of noise or sounds of speech An all consuming force Gorging Digesting But this has been poison Sickening my mind Breaking it down Believing it with each bite Hearing the calm nature of silence Hearing it's preach of peace I've written the silence with hatred and pain ****** hands holding a knife to the page Gorging on my own pain Reusing my suffering mind to escape Immolating my thoughts with repetition All in the silence of my mind Not a soul hears me Gorging on my own pain

Impure Silence
I'm full Devouring eons of blank air Devoid of noise or sounds of speech An all consuming force Gorging Digesting But this has been poison Sickening my mind Breaking it down Believing it with each bite Hearing the calm nature of silence Hearing it's preach of peace I've written the silence with hatred and pain ****** hands holding a knife to the page Gorging on my own pain Reusing my suffering mind to escape Immolating my thoughts with repetition All in the silence of my mind Not a soul hears me Gorging on my own pain
I'm stuck in a moment, replaying it over and over. A scene from a dream that calls back to a moment where I spilled my soul into the ocean air. I write it again and again in the pages of my heart hoping that it wasn't a mistake.
