for you, a simple silence
save sadness, anger, shame.
found shelter from emotions
that roared like hurricanes
for you, a simple silence
without the thirst for more
just a fleeting breeze consisting
of one i once adored
in the peace and in the quiet
i lay down my weary head
inhale cherry blossoms pink
exhale despair and dread
in the peace and in the quiet
each forward step anew
and though i'll journey far away
i'll always carry part of you

for you, a simple silence
save sadness, anger, shame.
found shelter from emotions
that roared like hurricanes
for you, a simple silence
without the thirst for more
just a fleeting breeze consisting
of one i once adored
in the peace and in the quiet
i lay down my weary head
inhale cherry blossoms pink
exhale despair and dread
in the peace and in the quiet
each forward step anew
and though i'll journey far away
i'll always carry part of you
