I Just Stare

[judasmachine]

Silence builds
Like a cauldron
Filled with
Lost hopes
And desires
That reenters
Your heart
With every
Waking beat
Will you ever
Speak again
And find
Your voice
And again
Scream into
The wailing wind
Where words
Are lost
And blown
Away yet
Leave your
Heart without
So much weight
So child
Look up
Into my eyes
One more time
And let me
See the dreams
That keep
You awake
And you pretend
Are truly fake
