in my silence i’ve never loved you more

it’s in my silence you can hear me the loudest

my breathing becomes uneven

i avoid eye contact so not to drown within the waters behind your eyelids

in my silence, my heart skips beats

there is no rhythm nor rhyme to why i love you so

tonight only, i hope the sun never rises

because how you shine in the moonlight leaves me speechless

in my silence, your voice is my weakness
