Listen... - A Collaboration w/ Poet Chris Smith
Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?
I'm
calling for you
Enough
of hiding away
Of
being always afraid
To
be who I really am
Darkness
encompasses
Fallen
within a vast abyss
I
close my eyes – envision
Heard
are voices calling
Piercing
the silence anew
There
comes a time
To
embrace your calling
But
do you fear me?
Will
you dare be mine?
Or will you run away
Hard
exterior to mirror
Deem
to perceive
See
beyond – a reflection
A
bleeding heart – torn
Yet,
fearless as a feline
In
the shadows do I dwell
A
haven I succumb
As
strength seeps into veins
Longing
to yield once more
In
the aftermath of turmoil
Darkness
within my mind
Of
a predator, hunting
Where
others refuse to look
I
am there, wanting, needing
As
no one dares to follow
Dare
to see beyond limitation
Here
it is all set into motion
The
profound silence engulfs
Yet,
appeases the restless soul
Arising
through the ashes anew
Come
heal within the darkness
Allow
yourself to surrender
Let
this night take us away
To
that place, forever ours
A
time to be, what we will
Let
the night heed our calling
As
the winds, arise, howling
Hear
us chant to the melody
Beneath
the moon and stars
As
two souls, merge into one
