It's quiet and I could hear water
Dripping loudly from the faucet,
Like I am alone yet I don't feel lonely
I'm aware that you can't hear my voice,
This silence then should be killing me
Yet instead it kept me here in wonder,
One small moment away from you
Shouldn't always feel like trouble,
And I'm yet to know if this feeling is
What they call utmost trust,
I can't live without you and yet,
I have accepted, to learn I must.
