In the flow of my words, I found love. Through these fogged eyes, I saw you. Through this hated heart, I saw yours. It was ever so radiant, so genuine, and so divine. It lit up my world; from the darkness, I awoke. I was butterflies when you saw flies. I was lost when I saw you smile. I ate up my words when they made you cry. I was ready to eat myself whole If it meant making you mine. Then everything choked. The world lost its color. I lost the voice I never had. Your silence made the dead of night recur. I lost the only song that kept my heart astir. In this flow of words, I found guilt. I found heartbreak, and I found everything bleak— Everything that I was never meant to build. So I silenced the voice of my cries That hummed when they saw the gold in your eyes. In these days of melancholy, My world feels dull, lifeless, and blue. My mind races to the days when we talked, So effortlessly, so full of vigor and hearts glued. Now I see only the emptiness And the coldness of a smoke-choked heart But even in the quiet, you linger near, A ghost of love I hold sincere.

Gold in Your Eyes
In the flow of my words, I found love. Through these fogged eyes, I saw you. Through this hated heart, I saw yours. It was ever so radiant, so genuine, and so divine. It lit up my world; from the darkness, I awoke. I was butterflies when you saw flies. I was lost when I saw you smile. I ate up my words when they made you cry. I was ready to eat myself whole If it meant making you mine. Then everything choked. The world lost its color. I lost the voice I never had. Your silence made the dead of night recur. I lost the only song that kept my heart astir. In this flow of words, I found guilt. I found heartbreak, and I found everything bleak— Everything that I was never meant to build. So I silenced the voice of my cries That hummed when they saw the gold in your eyes. In these days of melancholy, My world feels dull, lifeless, and blue. My mind races to the days when we talked, So effortlessly, so full of vigor and hearts glued. Now I see only the emptiness And the coldness of a smoke-choked heart But even in the quiet, you linger near, A ghost of love I hold sincere.
