Deep in the silence that cannot speak There is a sadness that blooms and breathes Battered by twigs and fallen leaves Lungs of air thin and bristle ribs Blossoms of dark trajectories Skeleton figures in submarines Drowning in lies of jubilee Halos to hold to sink or swim Beauty in scars of skin cut deep Loving the thrill of broken swings Capsuled in valleys far from dreams Living on salt and crystalline Lucidly slipping on ice so thin Autumn in winter summer springs Nomads run free on vast prairies Flowing through veins of tributaries Tasting the new blood on their lips Lining a cusp between their hips Blade descends slowly tongue in cheek Building a palace with their twin teeth
Deep in the silence that cannot speak There is a sadness that blooms and breathes Sadness in brooding symphony Sadness in chants of majesty Sadness that rises like morning glory Sadness that flourishes like a disease Tracing our bones from link to link Constellate like stars and planet rings Sadness that thrives on melancholy And the synthesis of metal and skin
