There Is A Silence In My Heart

There is a silence in my heart
each time I pass your empty door,
a night where shadows fall apart
and linger more than nights before.

But what can longing truly heal?
I search for that forbidden kiss —
the one you chose not to reveal,
the one that slipped into abyss.

Perhaps one day, when I am gone,
our paths will cross where time is still,
and what was lost and left undone
will bend at last to fate’s own will.

That long-remembered, waiting kiss,
like something owed from years ago,
I’ll place upon your lips in bliss
and let my guarded heart let go.

And maybe then, by time set free,
two wandering souls will find their way —
not torn by what could never be,
but joined as one beyond that day.
