My heart knows a silent place
‘Tis lonely and devoid of light
There I find my peace and space
…
Twenty three floors but no staircase
Not a living being in sight
My heart knows a silent place
…
The thoughts are left for me to chase
The birds sing so quiet
There I find my peace and space
…
Devil presents his fruitless case
No God to match his might
My heart knows a silent place
…
No single memory to erase
Windows, they whisper all night
There I find my peace and space
…
I wear a mask and hide my face
The roofs, they leak of fright
My heart knows a silent place
There I find my peace and space
‘Twenty three floors but no staircase’ beautiful stuff.

Very good. I like the way you rhymed three lines to the sequence of the next three lines. Most of my poetry is not happy go lucky fund stuff. Most comes from a point of pain. I write to work through it. Sometimes it’s the pain of someone else that pulls emotion out of me. My music, too. Many posts have my music on them. I’m an improv keyboardist. I play how I feel and it is just what comes out. Thanks for finding the post I just published. I’m honored.
