Silence breeds betrayal
Born from kindness and concern
Weeping is the lover from barbs set aside
The pain delayed longly burns
Alone attempted it was to hold aloft
The burden apart becomes the distant moor
Betrayal sets in bloody teeth
From blackened wings behind do soar
O' ugly lies spoken from lips of love
Tongue bitten off too late
Now silence the only language spoke
Spat out in bloody fate
Remiss it is beseeching love
For pain is set within the one
Wishing is no longer the coin
Payment too only faeries is done
Once was love enough to bring
Coupled with Security
Blessed smiles won the heart
Sailing together into eternity
Bring back that feeling
Born on wings of white
Shining heart warmed in kind
Wrapped in love beaming bright
O' truths set in lasting stone
Chiseled with hands strong from toil
Words never said made silent by love
For ever trusted because of travail
If faeries take coin at all
Take lies betrayal and pain
Away from those set upon
Leaving only trust and love in twain
