Get Rid Of The Advertisements

Bridge of Sighs
 
Bridge of Sighs
---------------------
The light illuminous through those heat drenched glistening windows
Why does time stop listening intent upon that hour
When caught abandoned in perspirations turmoil frozen,
Obliviously aware there,for betrayers to devour

The world sleeps warm in shallow breaths harmonic
As others gasping awaken suddenly those fears
Descending then to the psychic depths dreams access
Behind that overflowing waterfall of tears

For anybody to endure would then accept that
To mimic as a puppet dangling on a string
It's those controlling who in trust your heart is then placed
Who hold that rope that holds that final bell to ring

As peeling off the outside through the layers
Desperate fingers dance upon those feelings to defile
Still standing in acceptance sounds another
Where all that's left are dreams caught distant on a smile

That distance,is now way to close for comfort
Revealing all,yet nothing,but to much
If silence is a virtue in the minds eye
Then all is empty to the ears,the sight,the touch

If only there were answers to those questions
There never will be as the incline becomes too steep
As what has gone,still remains there,never alters
So the descent in its parallel will creep

Across the heart,into the soul,it's all consuming
Wrings the last hope from the warmest,faintest breath
When searching,pleading innocent those misfortunes
Becomes a constant from conception through to death

Do not fear that which unknown which calmly beckons
As fortunes truthful hide behind that mystics eyes
Leads you down a path with frangrances now tranquil
When weeping over depths below the 'Bridge of sighs'
