Deaf Ears

Stolen shadows in a dark embrace

A look of danger etched on her face

I felt her fingers–a frozen touch

A dreamland’s lost within her clutch

To sacrifice a soul you’ve earned

Is to swipe away things never learned

A golden dagger cuts smooth and quick

There’s blood and flesh still on her lips

A tear from god falls from the moon

Destruction’s kiss is coming soon

To walk on down an endless hall

Is to follow the fear of evil’s call

The dirt is tossed–the bones soon rot

Introductions endless to the wicked hot

I pray the lord my soul to keep

But on deaf ears my words do sleep
