hush, hush
my worldly friends
hush to the diamonds that glitter
hush the spiderwebs that glisten
hush to the sparkling tears
hush, hush
my burning wounds
hush to the scars that are forming
hush the stitches criss-crossing
hush to the healing flames
hush, hush
my cantering worries
hush to the ribbons untying
hush the memories that fade
hush to the voicing of anger
hush, hush
my lonely desires
hush to the goddess sighing
hush the moonbeams that cry
hush to the wandering dream
hush, hush:
I am listening
to his hushed heartbeat
