Silence dreaming ends

After all silence speaks the loudest,

reached by depths shallow grave.

Grievously dreamt imagination,

melting to freezing life thus far.

Hollow heart sought in black,

reflection distilled her touch.

Blurred by light dizzy contractions,

spinning up to fade into the night.

Screams vigorously trying vacant,

untouched fingers smoothly portray.

Kiss of love torn between hatred,

man of sorrow filled with grief.

Eyes in lust forgotten within,

fantasy making light of his soul.

Tied down in her waters he stands,

moon shinning brightly her way.

Fiery tomb now forsaken,

burning all the air he breathes.

Lost cause undone being done,

no way to swim this air so thick.

Falling upward towards extinction,

killed by a kiss without lips to feel.
