I Said it in The Silence
I said it in the silence
when the air felt thin
when the light was low
and so was I
I said it in the hour
when there was no will
when the breath was slow
and so was I
I said it in the madness
when no one heard
when the chaos killed it
and so did I
I said it to the window
when answers left
and glass stood between us
and so did I
