IN A QUIET PLACE

IN A QUIET PLACE

I took the words that tell
my thoughts and fears
locked them with a key
in a quiet place
where no one will
see them
again.

I’ve opened up my heart
bore my soul
to set my spirit free
from the demons
that are hunting me
down.

but the world can be
a cruel and unforgiving
place for some…
for most.

Now like a ghost
I glide
through a silent world
just me
alone
my thoughts locked away
in a quiet place
where no one will
see them
again.

and we can never be understood.

A beautifully crafted piece, perhaps there is room for redemption in it?

cheers,
