My prayer

By unusual_blood

Oh hear me sweet silence
Bring unto me your sleeping poison and
cover every inch of my body in your invisible cloak …
And let all ignorance sweep by me,
passing as if never seen or heard.

Oh dearest silence,
Come and caress this exhausted figure,
Come and free me from all these troubles …
these troubles that are causing me this stinging pain.
Come and deliver me with all your humbleness and peace …
Come … come and erase all these arguing words and sentences
that spill so proudly out of my mouth,
drenched in my immense hatred.

Oh holy silence,
Come and free this soul of these ignorant sayings
that bring me sins upon sins.
Come and kill these swear words that curse all whose name I call upon.
Come and give me the gift,
the gift of insight on the world of the slow, the outcasts, the patient.

Come divine silence,
Come into my bedroom and sprinkle me with your whispering spells
so that my dreams will be filled with pure tranquility and serenity

Come my darling silence, you are welcomed

    Very very descriptive, if you say it aloud the words seem to just roll off your tongue. Powerful emotions. ~*~Lone Wolf~*~
