Reticence

Behind a mask of blood and tears
I steal away from all my fears,
Hidden in the dark of night,
All my dreams fade out of sight.

I have left from Eden's grace,
A perpetual fear in a silent lace,
Never to taste the fruit once more,
Devil's guise and angel's core.

Heart will guide and love condoles,
Desires must now feed the coals,
A soul now locked in reticence,
Sanctity has been lost ever since.

Only your voice will bring me back,
To the confidence I lack,
Only yours will sing true,
Make my heart feel anew.

Part the clouds to see the sun,
Set the darkness on the run.
