Silent Truths

Your silence roared louder than any cry An empty room filled with words you left behind We danced around the hollow spaces Blind to the cracks forming in our reflected faces I reached for you through walls you wouldn't break Fingers brushed the edges of fear you couldn't shake But every touch dissolved in fading light Every word deepened the endless night Why didn't you release the storm that raged inside The thunder crashed, but I stood alone in the tide Stranded in the eye of all that we concealed Searching for truths that time refused to yield Silent truths hung in the air A confession we never dared to share The space between us thickened with each breath As if the weight of silence could speak of death I saw the signs etched in your distant gaze But your secrets blurred in the fading haze In the quiet, the truth became a veil Whispers of what we failed to reveal A burden that sank beneath the skin In the silence, our undoing would begin Why didn't you release the storm that raged inside The thunder crashed, but I stood alone in the tide Stranded in the eye of all that we concealed Searching for truths that time refused to yield Silent truths hung in the air A confession we never dared to share Now the echoes of your silence linger on A haunting reminder of all that's gone wrong In the void, I hear the words left unsaid Finding the pieces in the silence you fled Silent truths carved deep in our past A quiet testament to what we couldn't last
