*The splash of water slowly fades I managed to stop the exploding grenade The lightning bugs didn’t even bother to buzz The birds, the cats, the howling wolves, i hush I quiet the city sound, the busy street I suppress my heart, every beat I shut everything, everything to hear you I silenced the milky way galaxy to listen to you And then there I heard, i heard everything The silent cries, the tears pouring The commotion, uproar in your heart The emotions wanting to burst I heard your heart shattering I heard the blood dripping I heard every breath you released As you picked every broken piece I heard a happy noise Followed by a cracking voice You break out a long sigh Then a very desolate cry I love the riot in the stillness Because I can clearly hear you Every fiber of you Every sound of you And for you, my secret love I will shut the world and open my ears to you Until the day I finally hear a genuine laugh I will silence every galaxy in the universe Until the day you finally hear me too*

I silenced the universe..
*The splash of water slowly fades I managed to stop the exploding grenade The lightning bugs didn’t even bother to buzz The birds, the cats, the howling wolves, i hush I quiet the city sound, the busy street I suppress my heart, every beat I shut everything, everything to hear you I silenced the milky way galaxy to listen to you And then there I heard, i heard everything The silent cries, the tears pouring The commotion, uproar in your heart The emotions wanting to burst I heard your heart shattering I heard the blood dripping I heard every breath you released As you picked every broken piece I heard a happy noise Followed by a cracking voice You break out a long sigh Then a very desolate cry I love the riot in the stillness Because I can clearly hear you Every fiber of you Every sound of you And for you, my secret love I will shut the world and open my ears to you Until the day I finally hear a genuine laugh I will silence every galaxy in the universe Until the day you finally hear me too*
Inspired by a spoken word poetry performed by a Filipino, specifically the line "pinatigil ko ang kalawakan para makinig sayo". I'm not so sure of this one, so I just let the words flow.
