The Silent Enigma

Anathema

In dreamland grandeur


I held mesmerised peace


Innocence breathed again





A mind's escape


Leave walls of tears behind


Ethereal vision haunting still .....


The solitude left me blind





Beneath an open sky


Sibilant cries of youth dying


Enslave me with grief





A moonlit era, oblivion's twilight kiss


Wishes in lament


Happiness in a broken vision





Utopia still unborn .....





Tormented echoes of a fallen Eden


I longed for her beauty


Yet from dust, she returned


The dream, an enigma ..... silent
