Silent Room

A silent room, whispers soft,

When love was young, we dared to talk.

Now echoes linger in the air,

Of what we were, of what we shared.

Did we both fall in love,

Before we were ready?

Tangled in dreams,

Our hearts were unsteady.

I don’t know, I don't know, all I know,

Is that now I'm alone.

Caught in the shadows of our past,

Moments we thought wouldn’t last.

Were we too scared or well-prepared?

Leaves of doubt floating everywhere.

Yeah, these are questions in my head,

Answers I won’t get, thoughts I never said.

That I kinda wish I did,

But the timing slipped, just like that.

I guess sometimes you find the one,

But the timing's off, the place is wrong.

Years fall between our dreams,

Would it be different, if not so extreme?

Did we both think this was it,

The best that we found?

Or were we paralyzed,

By the fear of falling down?

I don't know, I don't know, all I know,

Is I’m still alone.

Caught in reflection and silence loud,

Love in our eyes lost in the crowd.

Were we too scared or well-prepared?

Now we drown in ‘what if’ stares.

Yeah, these are questions in my head,

Answers I won’t get, thoughts I never said.

That I kinda wish I did,

But the timing slipped, just like that.

Maybe we would be closer,

If just a couple years older.

I guess sometimes you wake up,

And everything’s over, without any closure.
