[bodytext] => You speak endlessly An incessant buzz. Barely noted. Gone unnoticed. An endless play. An act. Apparently convincing. For you remain enthralled. Why must you speak for hours on end About meaningless trust An ear lent by no one You claim to know me See the door to my soul You know nothing No door is open to you. You are still decieved. Unexistant pillar of trust Is all that remains Much to your surprise. I owe you nothing. I tell you nothing. I give you nothing. I ask for nothing. But your silence. How do you know These carefully chosen words Words plotted and devised Have any basis in truth? If I shout blasphemy, No doubt would surface. The source of heresay Would see no regrets. Both tempting and simple Deciet remains A game to play One of strategy and persuasion. Not thoroughly enjoyed by all. A game of trust And a lack of this. A play for ones enjoyment. These long sought answers evade you As easily as death finds it's seeker. Prying only further hides These prizes valued most. "Tell me the source of your angst!" The question I often flee. The truth will bring pain and destruction. A lie provides sullen peace. Why do you shy away From the answers you persistantly seek? Justification provides closure Mandatory for your sake. For you to ask what destroys me Simple, in upon itself. An unfortunate single option As nothing is revealed. The time for you to change is gone The remnant is darkness everlasting These things you claim I will gratefully endure I'll endure silently no longer.
