Brave

Opening the avenues of my heart,
Making me burst into song.
I know not what happens,
I know not if its wrong.

Spoken words of golden,
Heard the silvery silence,
Feeling the weight of sorrow,
The desperation of impatience.

Every heartbeat painfully slow,
No more shall I hang on,
Pride takes the upper hand,
I had you pinned, bang on.

Stolen glances, surviving memories,
Pain of the dead past,
All buried under mountains of strength,
Bravery found at last.
