Silent Secrets
Darkness folds in majestic grace
The calm collects upon my face
To feel the wood against my bones
Yet plunge unafraid into the hole
The last goodbyes and breaths have departed
My blood is as still as how it started
Now in my new home, it won't be long
Before everything here turns into none
It's only a matter of time you see
Before the stench will get to me
But to my avail I have no sense
For it has gone to mere utterance
Of the life I had, my missing soul
Reflected on the ones I know
Only to myself will I confide
Of the reasons that will forever hide
The secrets that are contained inside
The hole where I was buried alive
