Dim light

 

In the silence, where shadows fall,  
A love that flickers, barely a call.  
You came to me, in quiet despair,  
But where’s the warmth, the love we share?

I search for signs, a tender embrace,  
But all I find is a hollow space.  
Plain words, just texts, devoid of light,  
No spark, no fire, not even slight.

I wonder, should I walk away?  
Before the tears, before I stray?  
Yet something holds, a fragile thread,  
A love I fear may soon be dead.

You don't see the storm inside,  
The doubts, the fears, I try to hide.  
If you cared, would you not fight,  
To turn this dark into bright light?

But here I stand, alone in this,  
Longing for a tender kiss.  
I love you still, but with a sigh,  
I fear this love is a fleeting high.

So here I ponder, heart in hand,  
Should I stay, or should I stand?  
For love should never feel this cold,  
A story of warmth is yet untold.
