Lost in the Silence of the Room
April 13, 2023There's a street outside below my window
I can hear the cars as they pass by
They all have somewhere to go
It's like they're all racing for time
Here I am within the walls of painted gray
Like the colors of the skies out today
They feel like they are slowly closing in
As the poetry of the rain hits the windowsill
Oh I welcome the rain but it doesn't stay
I've been feeling a little bit down
Lost my motivation to do anything today
Feeling guilty for feeling this way
Oh I'm lost within the silence of the room
My mind's been against me too
I've been in here a little too long
Lost in the silence of the room
Another day came another day gone
Sometimes I'm just not feeling strong
But I'll thrive once tomorrow comes
When the sun lights up this silent room
I stare at the pictures of you and me
We're smiling and I'm missing you
But it feels like you don't miss me
Like the times apart they way you used to
Sometimes I think I'm starting to lose you
Because you don't touch me like before
You don't kiss me deep like you used to
And the physical affection slips a little bit more
But maybe I'm just lost in the silence of the room
Sometimes my overthinking gets the best of me too
Oh I welcome the rain but it doesn't stay
I've been feeling a little bit down
Lost my motivation to do anything today
Feeling guilty for feeling this way
Oh I'm lost within the silence of the room
My mind's been against me too
I've been in here a little too long
Lost in the silence of the room
Another day came another day gone
Sometimes I'm just not feeling strong
But I'll thrive once tomorrow comes
When the sun lights up this silent room
The day is ending the light is fading
I leave the emptiness of the silent room
The darkness coming the night is calling
Tonight I hope to see the moon
I watch the tree now blooming with leaves
The leaves are dancing with the flow of the breeze
I hear the cars passing up and down the street
I feel the vibrations from beneath my feet
Oh I welcome the rain but it doesn't stay
I've been feeling a little bit down
Lost my motivation to do anything today
Feeling guilty for feeling this way
Oh I've been lost within the silence of the room
My mind's been against me too
I've been in there a little too long
Lost in the silence of the room
Another day came another day gone
Sometimes I'm just not feeling strong
But I'll thrive once tomorrow comes
When the sun lights up that silent room
Until then I'll search for the moonlight
When it's late in the silence of the night
I'll breathe and release my thoughts out of sight
Rising with the sun shining like its light

I have a love for writing and reading. I created this website to share what goes on in this strange mind of mine and to express. I'm inspired by the imperfections in our world as those imperfections in humanity and life are what's real and true as well as beautiful. We all have our ups and downs and no matter how young or old we are, rich, poor, where we come from, our hearts beat the same and I think we all are on the same boat of striving for our dreams, love, happiness and hopefully compassion for one another.
Thanks for visiting.
