The silver lining that aches
It bleeds violet
In quiet
We are left wandering
With our souls of velvet
And ash
It’s like a shadow
Cascading upon damaged walls
Distorted in bloody vision
Glossy with time
The heater clicks
An unexpected rhythm
We are never to know
Just what lies in the fields
So gently whispering
In silence
Our breath lingers
Coffee stained and chocolate warm
Death rises from the carpet
A voodoo charm
Opened in chants
Just to make the heart spasm
From the silver lining
Oh, how it aches.
