Warmth Returning

In the silence I turn to the glassSeeing the pieces that I’ve held too long

Shadows fall across my face tonightI trace the lines that time has drawn with careMemories of us replay in soft lightI ask myself if I was ever truly there

Every touch we shared still lingers on my skinI feel the weight of all the words I never said

I’m looking deep inside my own reflectionFinding the heart I tried to hide awayIn this quiet moment of confessionI choose to love myself the way you couldn’t stayI’m learning how to hold what’s real and trueEven when the mirror shows a different view

Your laughter used to fill the empty spaceNow it’s my own voice that I need to hearI walk through rooms where we once left our traceAnd wonder who I am when no one else is near

I’m looking deep inside my own reflectionFinding the heart I tried to hide awayIn this quiet moment of confessionI choose to love myself the way you couldn’t stayI’m learning how to hold what’s real and trueEven when the mirror shows a different view

The nights grow softer as I let you goI feel the warmth returning to my soulNo longer chasing what was never mineI’m building something steady from the inside

In the silence I turn to the glassSeeing the pieces that I’ve held too longAnd now I know I’m ready to move on
