Silent Stars and Unsaid Words

17 days agoAria v1
[Verse 1] We passed notes in class, your name etched in my desk, Silent halls scream your laughter—echoes I can’t forget. Now the bell rings hollow, where’d our seasons go? You’re a ghost in the hallway, melting into snow. [Pre-Chorus] I traced constellations, spelled your face in the sky, But the stars don’t answer, just flicker and lie. Did my words turn to arrows? Did silence break the thread? I’m drowning in the whispers of everything unsaid. [Chorus] Do you see the same moon, or did it fade away? Are we just dust in the wind, or a firework’s delay? I’m stuck in September, where your smile used to glow, Now I’m just a shadow, singing love songs to the void. [Verse 2] I wrote a thousand letters, buried ā€˜neath my bed, Ink stains screaming ā€œI’m sorry,ā€ but the pages bled instead. You wore autumn like armor, I froze in July heat, Two kids clutching matches, too scared to light the street. [Pre-Chorus] The clock’s hands are thieves, stealing glances we stole, Our story’s a footnote, but you’re still my whole. I replay every syllable—where did the tune shift? Now I’m a boy in a snow globe, shattered by your gift. [Chorus] Do you see the same moon, or did it fade away? Are we just dust in the wind, or a firework’s delay? I’m stuck in September, where your smile used to glow, Now I’m just a shadow, singing love songs to the void. [Bridge] What if I held the door? What if I chose to stay? Would our tears be confetti? Did fate misplace our day? I carved ā€œWeam & Mahmoudā€ on the old oak’s skin, Now the bark’s peeling—did we ever begin? [Chorus] Do you see the same moon, or did it fade away? Are we just dust in the wind, or a firework’s delay? I’m stuck in September, where your smile used to glow, Now I’m just a shadow, singing love songs to the void. [Outro] (Instrumental fade with faint whispers of a distant piano, lingering on unresolved chords.)
