I keep my heart in quiet places
Where nobody names my fears
I talk to walls, they never judge me
They just echo what I feel
Maybe I’m too much, maybe too real
Living in colors they can’t see
I don’t wanna be louder
I just wanna feel deeper
If I disappear slowly
Would you even remember?
I’m a soft kind of broken
In a world that’s too loud
So I hide in my poems
And I don’t come out
I see meaning in the smallest things
Like how your eyes avoid goodbye
You said “I’m fine”, I heard the silence
Louder than your alibis
If I love, I fall too far
No in-between, no shallow parts
So I write you into songs instead
Safer there than in my arms
I don’t wanna be louder
I just wanna feel deeper
If I fade like a whisper
Will you hear me somewhere?
