Only
Only the deepest of feelings
Hammers striking the anvil sparks
Emotions which speak between two without words
Knowings
That razor thin line
Silent crossed
And then everything bleeds
I hurt
It screams
I threw my all against the wall
I broke upon you
For you
Racked body and soul
Hauntings
You everywhere
But at my need, where I needed you most
How does light come into a world
To leave it darker than before
I am lost, damned, thrice cursed
Suffering the toils and sweat of Hell to no avail
There is no mercy here
Only the memory of one cold drink of water
The mercy cup
Your eyes
Your hand touching mine
And a meaningless flight of words
Which said nothing, everything, all we couldn't say, without saying...
But damn, feelings speak
Roar
In that deafening silence of words...I was lost
But by God, my heart heard
Could not yours
I know it did
And we walked as wraiths
Silent in that yearning field
Amid the tide of crowd
Intruders on that sacred ground
Mere shadows in your light
I know
I know why
I know why not
Mutes keep the best secrets
I know I dream dreams which can never be
But you touched the flutter of their threadbare hope
For days the reason
Which gave the madness of the sweat box reason
Until broken I could do no more
But cowboy up
And ride way
Not into a sunset but a moonless night
I know why the stars fall
Heart left behind
To lie where it died
Pain don't hurt
If only
Hammers striking the anvil sparks
Emotions which speak between two without words
Knowings
That razor thin line
Silent crossed
And then everything bleeds
I hurt
It screams
I threw my all against the wall
I broke upon you
For you
Racked body and soul
Hauntings
You everywhere
But at my need, where I needed you most
How does light come into a world
To leave it darker than before
I am lost, damned, thrice cursed
Suffering the toils and sweat of Hell to no avail
There is no mercy here
Only the memory of one cold drink of water
The mercy cup
Your eyes
Your hand touching mine
And a meaningless flight of words
Which said nothing, everything, all we couldn't say, without saying...
But damn, feelings speak

In that deafening silence of words...I was lost
