We cross each other in the hall
Strangers now in body and soul
I have been consumed by chores
He has been busy opening life's doors
We are now strangers in bed
It seems what we had is now held by a thread
We cannot take the words that are unspoken
I see now we our life so broken
We may act well and happy in public
But inside our hearts are no longer bumping
I give up on us and our buried love story?
Or renew our vows and bring back the hidden glory?

See the warnings, see the signs. It easier to just act blind. Until all that's left is silence. Together you feel apart. No longer speaking, no longer feeling. The space once crossed now void.
We smile. But not at each other. We laugh. But not together. We cry. To leave one another. We sleep. But not together. We listen. But never to each other. We talk. But to disagree with the other.
You walk in the door, and explain about your day, You describe in detail who said what and when and why.
I'm not quite sure what to say I suppose its been some time I guess I should start with chit chat Make sure everything with you is fine But don't you think it's awkward. All this idle chat.
I can't recall the moment when the doubt ripped your face, Or put my finger on quite when the fog took your place..
A pretence of sleep, a steady breath. Your touch is warm and full of love But I remain cold. There is love here, but patience is thin And we are stretched out.
He doesn't notice you anymore. He looks right through you. This is one of those moments, you run everything you want to say through in your head and decide to keep quiet.
You're by my side. But you don't hold my hand. Whatever happened to you today. I'll never know cause you don't tell. Why am I waiting for you. To kiss me goodnight. If you never call me anymore.
