Whispers Were Never There Ache Never Came

It feels like mercy

It feels like release

Not a regret

No chain I need to keep

Run a little faster

Dont turn your face

I will be steady

Safe

And let you drift away

One more moment

Your small hand in mine

One more soft call

My darling

One last time

I have heard your words

They echo in the air

Each night I practice

As if you are still there

The warmth you gave

No one could take away

Your endless presence sheltered all my days

I held your love

But my heart froze in haze

If that side is dreamlike

Then it will not ache

Forget me for now

Till heaven replays

Your scent I sealed in shadows untold

I start believing whispers that were never there

Aches that never came

The clock keeps moving

Never to renew

The dreams you left beside my pillow

So close to me

Yet never touched

I gave my life to walk along with you

Tasted the summer burning in your youth

You held my love like snow begins to fall

So fragile and melting

Yet I gave it all

How could I not ache

I fear to fall asleep

Forget me for now

Till memories meet

Your fragrance lingers

Your laughter remains

Between gain and loss

I hear them again

Whispers that were never there

Aches that never came

The clock keeps rushing

Never to return

By your pillow I shared your sweetest dream

Rest now

It is still me inside your dream

I know it well

The hollow in my soul

Our bond outlasts the thousand tales they told

Though unforgettable

We cannot meet again

I am learning to release

To seal it once again

All those whispers that were never there

All those aches that never came
