When The Bell Tolls || Poem ||

Stillness;

Quiet sound,
Echoes across the chamber walls,
No voices can be heard,
No absurd sounds disturbing the slumber of the working slaves that break at this time,
This hour,
Second,
Or minute.

The bell tolls,
A voice speaks,
Several hearts are broken,
Shattered,
Tattered,
Tortured as the are forced to work in their stations;
Humiliation begins to take it's toll on the bold,
The noble,
And the glorious.

A preposterous statement it is,
The statement to be,
When the fallen slave's soul screams,
At a thousand decibels and makes you cringe,
and your ears bleed internally.
However,
It's a joyous sound,
To the bonded man made free,
As his cuff links are shattered,
And his wrists can be cleansed from dirt once more,
His clothing has been made from tattered and ripped up to clean and pure as snow,
And he no longer has to hear the sound,
The sound of when the bell tolls.
