Hush-a-by ((Don't you Cry))

by StandStill   Jul 30, 2008


Shh....speak not, my dear.
Your words slip too smoothly across my skin.
Hush...speak not these candid lies,
for they scream of an end to begin.

Unspoken goes your subtle truth;
unheard, unwanted, unseen.
Silken noose hangs by the fogged out windows;
oh darling...what could that mean?

Tears fleck across your lovely lips,
easing tracks into your sweet, sweet face.
Your blood is beautiful..now why is that?
In this dirty world, you seem so out of place...

Shhh...speak not, my dear,
for I want not to see you cry.
Hush, darling...it's ok....
of us, you shan't be the first to die.
