I told the stars my pain, but they blinked in disbelief
As if the sky could not conceive a suffering so far beneath
Still their presence offerd a quiet relief

Someone once asked,  
“What is your deepest fear?”  

I thought of you—  
Of how easily you left,  
Of how silence became your answer,  
And how I never measured up.  

But all I said was,  
“I’m afraid of heights.”

Lost in a world that should be mine,
Trying to be better from time to time
But then it struck me, like a lightning strike
I will never be the one you truly like

Sometimes too many, sometimes to less
Easy to let go, hard to catch
Like a breath just snatched away
A whisper lost in twilight's grey

A heavy silence, never broken
The memories creep like shadows long
So many words still unspoken
A weight I've carried all along

A lonely thought, so much more
Time I chased but never caught
Dreams I simply adore
Fade with every waking thought

I didn't know how to tell
So I bled ink instead of tears
I didn't know how to yell
So I hid the pain away for years
