A Story Whispered But Never Told

We danced in shadowed light

I was her secret in the dead of night

She was my sin I was her addiction

She had eyes like whiskey

Hair like the sun holding secrets only we both knew hid in shadows a game of pretend in front of others

Her laugh was a spark

Her touch a wildfire

But I was a ghost walking on a tight wire

She whispered her dreams in the dead of the night in my ear I don't ever want this to end

I was the story she'd never confess

A fleeting escape

A beautiful mess

now she's just

A shadow in my song

Where did I go wrong

I left without saying a word just a last kiss gently on her forehead a wink from my baby blues a silent goodbye a silent I wasn't coming back around anymore

No goodbye to say

Just a memory fading

Slipping away

We danced in the dark where the rules didn’t apply

Two souls colliding

A truth wrapped in a lie

She wanted a hero

A thrill she could hold and hide

But I was a chapter she left in the cold

I was her odyssey

A journey

A dream

A ship on her ocean

A thread in her scheme

But I couldn’t stay

I couldn’t pretend anymore I had to walk away i was falling in love with her she was his not mine

I let the story break where it wouldn’t mend

She called it lustI but i called it love A dangerous game with no escape,we danced that flame,a story whispered but never told,no goodbye to say she's just a ghost in my song now left behind a shadowed name
