Silent hope

Okay the song is a remake of an eternal if such a thing is possible... but that's another poem ;)  For maximum effect of song and poem, wait till his intro ends (at about :40) and the song begins before you read the poem.  Enjoy it!

Silent hope

Conversation filled

Easy hesitation

Attempts to avoid

Mines marked

Hopefully marked...

Or hopefully

Not

The silent hope

Confident trepidation

Yet with the step

The masks slip

A pace

Curious quickining

As dancers

Drawn closer

To hidden dangers

Of devices

Longing to explode

Crying for release

Eruption of consumption

Total

But

Avoided

Hopefully...

Or hopefully

not

The silent hope

They had been warned that

The mines

Must be avoided

Slightest contact

Would induce

And remind

The power

Of the kiss

Fatal

Remembrance of

The continual flowing

Blood of Eden

The undulating pulse

Of the hearts constant beat

Constant

All to be denied

Hopefully...

Or hopefully

Not

The silent hope

“Each week?”
Loaded question

Or

Inviting wish?

The mines are only a step away

Hopefully...
Or hopefully not

The silent hope
