Left in The Silence

I sit alone in these empty rooms,

Echoes of love that never bloom.

Pictures on the wall, but no one near,

Just shadows of warmth that disappear.

I watch the clock as time slips away,

Hoping you’ll see me, just for a day.

But you’re caught in a world of endless race,

While I fade, unseen, in this empty space.

Left in the silence, lost in the noise,

Craving the warmth of your absent voice.

Chasing dreams that you can’t see,

But all I need is you with me.

You’re here, but gone, so far apart,

Busy building, but missing my heart.

I hold on to words you used to say,

Before work took your love away.

Another day, another goodbye,

Another night I wonder why.

Your love’s like a ghost I can’t reach,

A faded memory, lost in speech.

Left in the silence, lost in the noise,

Craving the warmth of your absent voice.

Chasing dreams that you can’t see,

But all I need is you with me.

If I screamed, would you hear me at all?

Or am I just a shadow on your wall?

I try to be brave, but I fall apart,

Just a kid waiting, holding a scarred heart.

Can you feel the weight I carry inside,

The quiet tears I no longer hide?

I’ve learned to pretend, wear a smile,

But all I wanted was love for a while.

Left in the silence, lost in the noise,

Craving the warmth of your absent voice.

Chasing dreams that you can’t see,

But all I need is you with me.

Maybe one day, you’ll see me clear,

Realize I was always here.

But until then, I’ll stand alone,

In this silent house, unloved, unknown.
