Silence in My Heart

Silent thoughts in the midnight air

Wishing you could see me standing there

Every heartbeat, every silent prayer

Love that lingers, still it's unfair

Caught in the echoes of what used to be

Your shadow's still whispering to me

I chase your smile in every memory

But you’re distant, wrapped in apathy

Oh, how I drown in this silent sea

Hoping someday, you'll see me

But you turn away, so effortlessly

Leaving my love in the debris

I love you more than words can say

Even when you turn your love away

My heart beats like a relentless drum

Painting my world in shades of numb

Though you don't feel the same

I'll love you anyway

Forever lost in this silent ache

Heart on fire, yet still opaque

Every glance, a bittersweet chance

To change your mind, to make you dance

But your cold eyes don't give me a glance

I'm caught in this love's cruel dance

Oh, how I drown in this silent sea

Hoping someday, you'll see me

But you turn away, so effortlessly

Leaving my love in the debris

I love you more than words can say

Even when you turn your love away

My heart beats like a relentless drum

Painting my world in shades of numb

Though you don't feel the same

I'll love you anyway

Forever lost in this silent ache

Heart on fire, yet still opaque

Maybe someday you'll look my way

And feel what I feel every day

Until then, I'll remain

Loving you in silent pain

Love so deep, it breaks the soul

Yet I keep loving, making me whole

Even if you stay cold and distant

This love persists, insistent
