Strange Whispers and Silent Nights

The strange whispers and the silent nights

The moon, stars and a thousand lights

Loneliness, strangely; never left alone

Treads on memories that life now owns

Questions are raised and silenced by the mind

Rendered futile by a past left behind

Silly love traps, painful heartbreaks

The silent night recounts all aches

And yet it smiles, often as if it were mocking

The mind that thought life was rocking

The playfulness, the innocence, the wrongs, the rights

The strange whispers and the silent nights

So I lie in bed and think it over

Of how life gradually makes one sober

Through uncontrollable laughs and helpless tears

Memories that might not fade in years

And I fall asleep, despite my will

To think about dreams I didn't fulfill

My eyes shut, as voices in my head fight

Through the strange whispers and silent nights.
