Read Between the Lines
Unspoken words that lie between us,
Unseen strings that tie us together,
Fear pushed my voice down
till each whisper pulls my life out.
The moment stumbles but starts back up
I wish you’d wait just a moment longer
Let me memorise each line on your face,
but you disappear without a trace.
I wonder if you ever knew
Alone at night, I think of you
I said it countless times
If only you could read between the lines.
