UNRECIPROCATED

You laid quiet, eyes fixed on the clock
In front of you, I sat and stared
You muttered something inaudible for me
I didn't mind, I wanted to flee
But my heart wants to stay here with you despite the silence
The brimming awkwardness of the night
Like the wall with its hard rock
Your convictions, formidable to block





















Will you allow me to read you
Against the noise in your mind
Against the misery in your heart
Against you screaming at me
I didn't mind, I wanted to flee
But my heart wants to stay here with you despite the silence
When you stood and opened the door
Out in this room with its torn wallpaper
Out of my life forever

For another moment in life...
Stood up and chased the shadows
Whichever the hungry darkness ate
Desolate, let it be
I didn't mind, I wanted to flee
But my heart wants to stay here with you despite the silence
And wait for the same puzzled living soul
Lost in his own labyrinth
With the door still wide open
And my whole being out there stolen
