Silenced, Still

To have and to hold the unobtainable you
                        that protective barrier locked tight
                        I wanted to be the flickering flame
                        guiding you through darkened light
                        Instead I found myself falling
                        deeper into your sinking ground
                        Just outside of your window waiting
                        but determined to make no sound
                        I'm falling forever outside of your heart
                        but I will not make a sound
                        Feeling your air when you breathe a sigh
                        around your grey, invisible chill
                        Smooth like the rain upon your grave
                        I'll lie with you silenced, still
                        Peace will reveal her remedy to loss
                        absolution for your closed world
                        and an angel will bring relief to your thoughts
                        by the softest whisper you never heard

                        I give you my word
