Strangers in Our House

Walls are silent, shadows creep,

Living side by side but not asleep.

Familiar paths now foreign streets,

Lost in echoes of what we used to keep.

Same house, different worlds apart,

Words fade before they start.

Eyes avoid, silence grows,

Where love once lived, doubt now flows.

We're here but strangers in this house,

Echoes of love that once was vows.

Held together by fragile threads,

Living in dreams we left unsaid.

We are strangers in this house,

Hidden pain behind a loving guise.

Once our home, now just a shell,

In this silent, hollow spell.

When you speak, it’s quick to fight,

Love feels lost, just a fading light.

Bodies near but hearts afar,

Memories of who we truly are.

Sex just a ritual, love’s a sacrifice,

Buried deep in unspoken lies.

What’s the answer, where’s the way?

Can we find our lost yesterday?

Hold on tight or let it go?

Is there hope in inner glow?

We're here but strangers in this house,

Echoes of love that once was vows.

Held together by fragile threads,

Living in dreams we left unsaid.

We are strangers in this house,

Hidden pain behind a loving guise.

Once our home, now just a shell,

In this silent, hollow spell.

Perhaps tomorrow, or in the past,

Can we find what meant so fast?

Or are we forever lost,

As strangers around the cost?

Silent house, empty space,

Searching for a saving grace.
