Quiet Places

Quiet places full of peace,
Salvation for my heart,
Different sides showing,
Rain made of petals,
So lost in everything,
Seeing red shapes in a clear blue sky,
Hearing the chaotic voices in dead silence,
Too much,
Too little,
So many words,
None of them right,
Keep running my race at this speed,
Gonna end up falling before the finish,
Slow down breathe,
Don't be left behind,
Roll the dice,
Drumbeats uncovering different sides,
7, 8, 9,
Sunsets torn across broken skies.

Quiet place,
Demise of my heart,
So many sides impossible to see,
Petals charred by fires unseen,
Crystal clear questions alive,
Colours fade as skies alight,
Silence screams in so many pitches,
So many,
Too many,
Nowhere near enough,
Not the right one,
Fly faster catch the memories,
Gonna get there first,
Not enough breath in my lungs,
Not enough words for my final stand,
Dice is fallen onto the floor,
1, 2, 3,
Ashes float past stitched up streams.
