Silence is to silk...

It came as a surprise
Though she knew the phrase
Bones heal faster
But the silence grew
Took hold of it
Wrapped it around herself
Turned within
Burrowed beneath time,
Expanse and perfection

Retreat
Retreat
Retreat

Made a ploy
Revised a plot
Rewrote the script

Retreat
Retreat
Retreat

Peeled from her skin
The cocoon that grew
Flesh soft and moist
Milk white
The smile, that same smile
Fed off the dawn
Never faded
but somehow, brand new
Now from within
"I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream"
