That's How I See It

My heart

it beats at a steady pace,

but when I see you it leaps off the charts

 

That was then,

Now,

It’s a different and new feeling,

It keeps building up inside me.

 

When I see you,

I see secrets and mysteries as dark as the night,

I’ve never seen them before,

They’re hidden away like the depths of the ocean,

I’d like to find them.

 

I see the way you get angry,

I see how you bring yourself down when it's not your fault.

I don’t see the old you anymore,

I see someone new.

 

It’s not just you though.

I feel your pain.

I feel your guilt.

I feel the different person that I have now become,

I have been opened to a new light,

Seen a new life.

 

All that we have now is

Silence.

It’s a frustrating silence,

That takes away a part of me

Every single day.

This silence,

Is deafening
