The LAST attempt

Once again i stand here

wishing to scream before i cry for you

in the belch of a banchie's scream

its your silence alone that deafen's me

Then and then alone i feel my bleeding ears

then and then alone i feel my gaped heart

then and then alone i feel gushing rivers of salt

then and then alone i feel i'm on my own

and for this reason i'm frozen

and for this reason i'm torn

for this very reason i'm forced to say these words as yours which went unsaid

i wished a thousand wishes that this were not so

i begged the stars to have you utter a single vowel, but nothing still

my thoughts roll storms while my heart sinks in them

these are the words of a broken man

a man who dreams of your mind married to mine to live in wholely conversation

a man who whould not only lend an ear but would mortgage it just to pay attention

once again my thoughts grow numb

with nothing left to do

a wondering soul in space amidst galaxies of your silence that haunts me

and silent you are still

though even within your eyes you speak so eloquently

keen attention as your thoughts lay structure to your internal lecture

a monologue!

one so loud that sound itself gets quite and all is heard

while nothing is said, everything is read

read in the silent code of silence

the potion served shaken not stirred

but has stirred and served one reaction

Tears that are never seen

thoughts that have never been

actions that were never screened

and still you stand silent

Within one wish for sound

as sound as the weight of your word

i'll cry loudly!

as no part of me will stay silent in rebellion to your position

i'll scream for your silence to cease

then again...

i'll scream with your silence

serve you your stir

to lure you to my pain

serve you your stir, serve you your stir

i'll serve you your stir

to aid your want for my words

while i starve for yours!
