world without words

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

fading into the the end of winter
traces of your fragrance are with me
like the final image of a dream
that I'd love to hold on to but realize I really can't
open my eyes to wipe away the tears
to wipe away the memories we never could have seen

am I still dreaming? 
imagination has become the illusion 
I refused not to believe
mesmerized by the sound of a spinning coin
echoing into the dark corners of my mind
another future is guided into the unseen
trying to find the answers, prying open broken eyes
 
   somehow... I'm still a little out of place
   turning from spectator to main actor
   feeling less than half alive
   making you face the silence 
   I couldn't ever have told you of
   thoughts that are unable to escape 
   the relentless grip of a bleeding heart

for a while it was of help to have forgotten how to cry
now that I remember, everything may change
a whole life waiting for me
pushing me to a place I never thought
I'd have to see again
the world without words.

Reason for writing:

    having to watch certain rules to be valid no matter what the situation is...
