Whisper

What if my whisper
dies to silence
to that silence that takes your breath away
cause I'm not there

what does it matter
this silence from within
without words without pain
but where do i begin

the past batters my tattered soul
these words take my whisper
and turn it to silence
but if not written it would do the same

so what now, my heart cries out slowly
time ticking, slowly breathing
take my breath away
time, take my breath away

madness, dear madness
as I slowly fade
take my breath away
time, take my breath away
