Silence

Silence is something I welcome 
When I lay my tired head down
Just above my burdened and aged body

Darkness welcomes my aching heart 
Into the stillness of time
Tears keep my skin smooth
As I burn from the 
Fires that are my sins

Barbed wire pierces my wrists 
Letting me know 
 "Trust no one"
The shadows whisper

I sob as quiet as I can
So to show no fear
But still keep my wrecked 
Cadaver from exploding in screams
