Quiet in the dark, I hear her voice, She speaks in riddles with no rhyme, I press my ear against the cold plaster, But she will speak when suited for her. A long, mournful, cry forlorned, listening, I speak so softly to whisper my desire, But she will speak when her time comes, I must be patient and wait a lingering time. So buried long ago in this cold wall, Long forgotten, but not forgiven locals say, To why her fate came to her that long-ago day, Is mysteries mystery I now must comtemplate. When nothing comes, just like a blackened void, I call her name, so frantically in an audible voice, But she will respond whenever the fancy hits her, I must sit silent in case I miss her frigthened word. Enough with civilities in playing a waiting game, For her icy lips and cold-stone stare will surely come, When walls of regret are torn down in self desire, And I will gaze upon her skeletal soul to so define, Why she is lost and buried so in walls sometime ago.

Buried
Quiet in the dark, I hear her voice, She speaks in riddles with no rhyme, I press my ear against the cold plaster, But she will speak when suited for her. A long, mournful, cry forlorned, listening, I speak so softly to whisper my desire, But she will speak when her time comes, I must be patient and wait a lingering time. So buried long ago in this cold wall, Long forgotten, but not forgiven locals say, To why her fate came to her that long-ago day, Is mysteries mystery I now must comtemplate. When nothing comes, just like a blackened void, I call her name, so frantically in an audible voice, But she will respond whenever the fancy hits her, I must sit silent in case I miss her frigthened word. Enough with civilities in playing a waiting game, For her icy lips and cold-stone stare will surely come, When walls of regret are torn down in self desire, And I will gaze upon her skeletal soul to so define, Why she is lost and buried so in walls sometime ago.
