I'd love to watch you die
To see the color fade

For all the gloom and sorrow
To drift away by day

I'd know your threat had ceased
I'd rest in peaceful slumber

I'd go out on the rooftops
Annoucing, the great fall

Death! I tell you all
-For might we once have feared

We now are given reason
To sing out on the word

The birds would sing
The sun would shine

And life would live once more

I'd love to witness death
That is, of you my foe

To see a once forboding figure
Trampled down by silence

I'd laugh in hysterical muteness
I'd shed a joyful tear

No one would think to stop me
For once you'd stopped us all

As once a last breath taken
A joyful echo heard

No more the sound of silence
No more the sound of hurt

What left would be a corpse
A lonesome, fallen figure

The ghost of all once evil
Would sink below through screams

We, as now a whole
Would love to watch you die
Carol Huizinga Jan 2011
Silence falls across the land
Some may not understand
That light becomes night
But do you have the sight?
Tick tock goes the clock
Broken hearts turn to rock
They have lost the rhyme
The beating drum is off time
Happiness is a choice
Within the truth of our voice
Don't allow shadows to win
Next moments are to begin
Matters not who, or what they are
Stop, look, see that falling star
Shadows are not a reality
Only an emotional fatality
I give you a thought, a smile
Maybe only for a short while
People always come and go
Reason we don't always know
But, I do know this for certain
Pure gold lies under your curtain
Time to cut those binding strings
Open them; allow the light to bring
Magic and miralces to you
Your soul knows it is true
Loudly annoucing it is the time
To once again find your rhyme
Tick tick goes the clock
Challenging you to crush the rock
