The Nameless Speak

by The Queen of Spades   Feb 22, 2007


The words in their hearts
Burn their mouths
As they place their faith
On forgotten clouds

What they believe
Is what no one sees
Their hopes and dreams
Hang untold in trees

They dwell in the heat
Thrive in the cold
Serve themselves yet
Do what they're told

You think they're seen
But their image is clear
Sometimes being noticed
Is their biggest fear

Though they exist everywhere
And everyone they surround
Their presence can be lost,
Nowhere to be found

To live they must be strong
But they're interpreted as weak
And though you may not hear
Believe that the nameless speak
