Hush now, and be still.
7/6/04 04:33 ama whisper of white in her shadow
a whimper of white in the sky
a welt raised in white, abrupt on her skin
reflects the rage in the white of her eye
too many the mornings she's been here
too many the mornings she's spent wide awake
too many the hours, alone as the dark fades
lost in rapt contemplation of fate
a whisper, too loud in the silence
a whimper, too loud in her mind
a wailing begins, too loud for the hour
she knows how cruel it can be to be kind
a whimper of white in the sky
a welt raised in white, abrupt on her skin
reflects the rage in the white of her eye
too many the mornings she's been here
too many the mornings she's spent wide awake
too many the hours, alone as the dark fades
lost in rapt contemplation of fate
a whisper, too loud in the silence
a whimper, too loud in her mind
a wailing begins, too loud for the hour
she knows how cruel it can be to be kind
