Listen to the secrets in the dark
Listen how they whisper to the wind
Asking for a flame for all the sparks
Begging for the dance of fire within
Waiting for an alley
Where the echoes play
All the games with rules
Just made for breaking
Listening for dreams
That blow the silence away
In all the dreamers
Running from awakening
Listen to the secrets in the dark
Listen how they linger in the mind
Asking where the sinners leave a mark
In places only saints will have to find
Standing on a corner
Where the mirror cracks
In pieces made for
All that hide reflections
Watching for the face
Where all denial lacks
The mercy for the souls
Who need affection
Listen to the secrets in the dark
Listen how they shiver in the end
Asking for a swim with all the sharks
Just to feel the rivers flow again








Powerfully penned, Brandon. Another excellent write with lots of layers my friend. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.
