Restraint

Restraint. How long we've been held. How long we've just waited. For you to see fit. That we don't need to be negated. But I know you won't dare. Let us go free. For we are your entertainment.

Quick Question...

What will we do if the words run dry. What will we do if tears won't cry. What will we do with the midnight sky If stars won't come to greet us. What will we do if the dogs won't bark.

It's dark. I can hear the whirring of my computer. The light pollution obscures the night sky. I can see no stars. Oh, the stars. The stars. Where are they. Hiding. Hidden.

Alone We Mourn

Inwardly deep. Forever alone. Minds never sleep. Nothing's our own. In darkness we creep. Nowhere is our home. Always reaching. Nothing to touch. Someone preaching. In God they trust.
