 | I wait in
Silent Captivity,
One thought, not of you,
To set me free.
Free from your eyes,
Your mesmerized hold.
Escape from your lies,
Your truth, untold.
Alone, you left me
Drowning in Pain,
Soaked in my tears,
My Puddle of Rain.
My soul is entrapped
By visions of you,
Unbearable memories
Of a love, Untrue.
My past, my future,
Lives from within.
Your smile, your laughter
Is my world of sin.
I pray for heat,
For sun's burning fire,
To ignite my silence,
This deadly desire.
But if darkness shall come
And I do not wake,
I surrender this love,
My life you can take.
If I can't escape,
Then forever, I'll see
Your Face,
Your silent captivity.
