Silent Rivers

Stillness on the morning lake.
Promises we failed to make.
Looking in your eyes so green.
Losing what was once between.
Touch me like you used to do before.
Footsteps on a wooden floor.
Feeling this quiet distance grow.
Where do silent rivers flow?
Silent rivers run so deep.
Secrets that we cannot keep.
Hold me closer, let it flow.
Even if you have to go.
Silent rivers in the night. We are fading out of sight.
Tracing circles on your hand.
Words I cannot understand.
Winter coming to the door. We cannot be what we were before.
Breath upon the window pane.
Listening to the falling rain.
Drifting with the heavy tide.
Nowhere left for us to hide.
Silent rivers run so deep. Secrets that we cannot keep.
Hold me closer, let it flow.
