The Mute
Uploaded by remembrME on Nov 16, 2001
Love and hope and pity and zest
and feelings we distrust
others want what we detest
persuade to be a must
Surrounded by a constant fury
demanding to obey
one must wonder why they worry
when they've chosen to delay
Worry is not truly deep
for if meaning balanced word
then they're objections wouldn't seem steep
and they're demands would not be heard
Nosy hands
and nosy ears
and nosy eyes
when you have fears
what possessed them
to bring cheers
when in reality
just brings tears
A voice unheard as perfect silence
and burden that's let free
a conversation without verbal violence
a side that you can see
Convincing mouths lead to convinced minds
but only to blind fools
when it comes to trying times
it isn't necessary for your rules
An overcrowded head
with nothing that's your own
ignoring what is said
engraving it in stone
Seek and find a place to hold
all those theories that aren’t your own
on the thought you might be sold
a crazy thought, cede through a moan
A day to come, late or soon
they'll squabble all but loudly
subracted one, end through a dune
a muted torrent spoken proudly
