silence sinks
Empty shells and wishing wells
Falling stars and bones we pull apart
Hundreds of pages with verbs
'Cause actions are heard more than words
Blue tunes and steel half moons
Rabbits feet, 4 leaves in shades of green
7 stones, burning coals, books of gold
Quiet pleas on bended knees
Charms on chains and shiny things
Silver dreams and special drinks
Little lies and tongues on fire
false emotion, fake devotion
Toes on wire, stretching tighter
Mended head with broken thread
Melting ice and muddy ground
Restless, slippery slope ahead
Roaming souls that search for home
One around and one alone
Silence sinks a somber sound
Walls are only listening now
Falling stars and bones we pull apart
Hundreds of pages with verbs
'Cause actions are heard more than words
Blue tunes and steel half moons
Rabbits feet, 4 leaves in shades of green
7 stones, burning coals, books of gold
Quiet pleas on bended knees
Charms on chains and shiny things
Silver dreams and special drinks
Little lies and tongues on fire
false emotion, fake devotion
Toes on wire, stretching tighter
Mended head with broken thread
Melting ice and muddy ground
Restless, slippery slope ahead
Roaming souls that search for home
One around and one alone
Silence sinks a somber sound
Walls are only listening now

Thank you very much....I really appreciate your feedback. Most of my writing is more lyrical. I've been listening to a lot of white stripes lately and I think it's influenced my writing lol.
