My questions, from time to time, Never quite stop whispering your name. I wandered too deep into your sea, Until I remembered — who am I to swim in an ocean that was never mine? We were never anything, were we? You never called me yours, Nor did I ever call you mine. Yet something keeps knocking at my doors Whenever I meet your gaze, Whenever your voice spills its melodies Into the quiet of my days. You give me the urge to claim that delicate smile of yours — and it feels so wrong. Your heart beats for another soul, And I will never cross that line. So I try to take a step back — I have to. But why does it feel so heavy to lift my heels, to silence your name, to shut you out of my world? Maybe I’m trying to leave a place I never admitted I lived in.

A Place I Never Admitted I Lived In
My questions, from time to time, Never quite stop whispering your name. I wandered too deep into your sea, Until I remembered — who am I to swim in an ocean that was never mine? We were never anything, were we? You never called me yours, Nor did I ever call you mine. Yet something keeps knocking at my doors Whenever I meet your gaze, Whenever your voice spills its melodies Into the quiet of my days. You give me the urge to claim that delicate smile of yours — and it feels so wrong. Your heart beats for another soul, And I will never cross that line. So I try to take a step back — I have to. But why does it feel so heavy to lift my heels, to silence your name, to shut you out of my world? Maybe I’m trying to leave a place I never admitted I lived in.
