Whispers
When it was both of us And I spoke to you I waited to trust Anything that was true While I waited to fall After choosing the words Your silence is all You allowed to be heard Voices and cost Words without form Lonely and lost Whispers in the storm When we faced Trouble and pain Nothing to embrace Except for blame When your smile Turned fresh and new Choices and styles Strangers in view Voices and cost Words without care Lonely and lost Whispers in the air In the creation Where the secrets hide Are the many moments When memory died The truth about lies We keep to ourselves When mirrors and whispers Are all that is left I left a simple note unsigned On that table down the hall I drew it with a childish design In case you still laughed at all The dam is breaking loose Where the river turns to mud Look for survivors on the news Whispers from the flood
