The Quiet

Ours was silence
In deep years
Apart distances
Hearts, far away

I'm only a paltry light
In your cerculean landscape
Almost faint, irrelevant
Almost nothing

Our heartbeats went loud
But sounded different rhymes
Surpassed the test of time
It's not us, this time

Those three words
Were always empty
I'm sorry
For doubting your sincerity

You've never let me enter your mind
So as your heart
Always hid me in your shadows
A dark part of yours,
T'was me

Ours was music
But for years,
I've never sang

The rose you gave,
With all the words you spoke
And all our smiles
Has faded terribly

You said,
"You're my everything"
And yet,
You tell me nothing

Don't tell me I made your day,
We both know I didn't
And it quite hurts
That you glance at her
The same way you glanced at me

You gave me up once
Doesn't mean you couldn't do it again
Started out wrong
We are ending it right

Should've dropped your goodnights
I will always understand,
They meant goodbyes.
