Melody

Singing melodies
Only the heart can heed
I hear you singing those melodies
In silent absentees
Oh-ho,
The words whispering underneath your breath
I listen from the shadows
Making tunes to go with your felonies
It's your time of redemption
It's my time of attention
Let it all pour out
Onto the floor
Let it all come out tonight
In your silent melodies
Meant to never grace my ears
Your stories of forsaking and being forsaken
Promises breaking
And your heart aching
Those melodies were never meant to be heard
I listened oh so carefully to your melody
That night was shaking
The tremors making
Me shudder to my core
You spoke in a whisper
Hoping for something more
You always dreamt of something so much bigger
You could never get what you deserve
The melodies fill with remorse
It is too late now,
You could not change now
And the melodies would just stay ignored
Suffocated from the voice within
You never thought I would hear
The melodies never meant to hit any ears
You keep singing your melodies
In hopes it will change something
But only your heart is hearing it
How can it change anything
when it already feels it?
Keep singing your melodies
In hopes of something more.
