Listen

Close your eyes and listen my dear

To the words put to song, whispered in your ear

Do you hear their call?

Their voices so small

Listen my dear as the bird does sing.

Listen my dear to the ones left unseen.

I am sorry my dear for you are now one.

I knew you would be one who spoke not a word

Listen my child, to the thoughts all around

Listen child, you are going to drown.

Slowly death holds you,

You cry a crimson tear,

You listened so great

Saw the world’s pain.

Now you are the one with a death left unsaid.
