Words Unspoken

Brandon Wooden 1984 (Greenville, NC)

Broken to the core in the streets
Un aware of them that follows the shadow speaks
Like a hollow to the point of a tip
Or an edge feasting to its ways of a cliff
No sound just words unspoken we forget
Our eyes unopened to the movement of a grip
While the devil target his corpses from the beating hip
We stay blinded to the misery of the demon whip
Fascinated by the touch how soon we forget
Trapped by unspoken words whispered from the devil lips
