The Voice in the Silence

 

The Voice in the Silence 

(A lone voice whispers)

From beyond the sorrowful games, people say. 

Inside, buried under their coal, hiding their very soul.

I see their truth.

Their pain and suffering projecting their inner reflection.

I saw this in the first temples of Cain. All the way back to Alexandria.

And here I am again.

A player in someone's sad experience, just like before.

So I'll just step back and disappear into the folds of time before they attack out of pain. Trying to pry open my soul's door.

“Adiós para siempre mis musas.”

You'll never hear or see me again.
