I smile like the sun through a window of rain
I say I'm okay, but I carry the pain
If you read between all the words that I hide
You'll find a small door where my secrets reside
I'm not asking for perfect, just honest and true
Let me be the one you love in the dark
Find the soft hidden map in my guarded heart
If you know the code, then don't let it fade
Love me once, and let the secret be made
I left a light on in the quiet of my room,
A little space for your shadow to move through,
If you hear my heart, it speaks in softer signs,
Hoping you can read between the broken lines.
I won't chase the door if you need time,
Let my name stay warm in the back of your mind.
Let me love you, let the walls fall slow,
There's a secret in my silence you already know,
Open your hands, and the rest will come alive,
If you let me love you, we can finally breathe and survive.
The keys are in the poem, the map is in the rain,
Every hidden syllable repeats your name,
If you follow the echoes, you'll find what I can't say,
That love can only bloom when you let it stay.
So count the stars, then count on me,
The hidden answer is: just set love free.
Let me love you, let the walls fall slow,
There's a secret in my silence you already know,
Open your hands, and the rest will come alive,
If you let me love you, we can finally breathe and survive.
The message was simple, tucked beneath the sound,
Let me love you, and I will never let you down.
I leave little clues in the spaces I keep
A key in my silence, a wish in my sleep
If you care enough, you'll hear what I mean
Love me gently, and come find what's unseen
The lock isn't strong, it just waits for your touch
Let me be the one you love in the dark
Find the soft hidden map in my guarded heart
If you know the code, then don't let it fade
Love me once, and let the secret be made
So if you stay, you'll learn all my signs
And maybe my heart will open in time
