I know a secret place inside of me
lost among the truths of eternity
the silver moon hangs low in the pale sky
as stars fall about where angels die
this broken heart of mine, I know it well
in the darkness of the night my spirit dwells
crimson flames of glass burn through the day
until the break of dawn, love shall fade away...

My hidden memories
I hold you near
free me from my prison chains
and release my fear
for darkness travels
across the great divide
for nothing truly lives
that hasn’t died...

I’ve seen a fantasy across the sky
flashing images of yesterday I thought were lies
simplified division of my heart and mind
these are solemn thoughts that shall remind
me of the days ago that could never be
my hope of happiness is lost at sea
velvet crush and silken sheets of foolish gold
this ends my story now as life unfolds...

My hidden memories
I hold you dear
I’ve lost my hopefulness
life’s so unclear
for my fantasies
live by my side
and nothing truly lives
until it dies...

A life of discontent that seems so well
what tomorrow holds I shall not tell
for things are still unknown unto my eyes
solve the puzzles if you will with useless tries
you desire to hear that love is blind
and someone soon my dear your heart will find
but you shall never know what lies for you
when you know not yourself that which is true...

My hidden memories
I love you so
take away my broken dreams
and let me know
the things I never should
hear of this day
for nothing truly lives
until it fades away...

A silver symphony plays to the night
as witches brew their craft to prove what’s right
and though the days grow old as my heart does too
I pray for a release to begin anew
select your life here and speak denial
as you stand alone at your misfit’s trial
sell another dream to keep you dead
you seek the answer to your life inside your head...

My hidden memories
I need to know
what happens when it ends
beyond this show
dance into the light
of endless waves
for nothing truly lives
‘til death it saves...

Tears of diamond ice fall from the sky
burning bridges to ground with fiery cry
ashen towers arise aloud around the seventh seal
where nothing breaths again and death it deals
I need a place to hide where I may dwell
inside my heart I find that life is hell
for I know not what I do or what I speak
answers to your prays are all that you seek...

My hidden memories
shall lead me home
where I’ll find a piece of mind
and I’ll live alone
for in this life I lead
I can’t confide
and nothing truly lives
that hasn’t died...

Reason for writing:

    Tis a poem that I wrote after/while listening to the song My Little Dancer by Just Marie Grant... It's to be spoken/sung to the melody of it...
