Deep And Silent

Deep and silent are the nights when you hear crows calling. How they mock your fear. Eyes of red and a misty rain. A frozen cry and you are cold. Broken and shattered are your bones.

With frightened tears that streak your face

You hear a cackling from the crows

They mock your fears.............

As your heart beats against your chest

You hear a frozen cry............

With a stare of emotion.........

As broken windows shatter

Into a curl you roll.........

Your sanity has doubts........

It leaves you as a child

You feel fear...

Around you the mist does dance

Your thoughts wander

And you are afraid

Of a past event

Of a memory that lingers

Your heart skips a beat

That will chill your bones

Right through you goes a stare

You feel it watching you

The cold night freezes

Your lips are cold

With no one there

You hear foot steps

Shadows dance before you

With a shawl of cold

You hear a call

Deep and silent.........
