Without You I Break
The night disguises what the daylight fears,
I’ve carried silence through the heavy years.
I smile for strangers, but it’s not the same,
A mask of laughter hides a burning flame.
Let Me Be Myself
You gave me endless shelter, you held my trembling hand,
You drew the lines around me, like castles built on sand.
I know your love was gentle, I know your care was true,
But somewhere in the silence, I lost the me I knew.
Before the Silence Falls
Under the silver streetlight glow,
Our footsteps slow, nowhere to go.
A gentle breeze, the night so still,
Your laughter’s warmth, my heart it filled.
I caught your gaze and turned away,
Afraid my silent feelings would betray.
So many words I’ve locked inside,
Hoping the courage will collide.
The Last Chance to Tell You
When we give love to someone true,
It hurts when that love is unreciprocated too.
But to love and never say a word,
Letting time pass without being heard,
Only deepens the pain in the heart.
Just in Case
You look at me like I’m the prize
But I’m still hiding in disguise
Your heart is loud, mine’s soft and shy
I smile, then pull away and lie
Found in the Silence
I gave up on love, closed every door,
Couldn’t take the heartbreak anymore.
Days went by in muted grey,
Hoping pain would fade away.
But when I least expected light,
You came and made the dark feel right.
Not with promises loud or grand,
But quiet care and steady hand.
