Whispers and Shadows

[Verse] She found his eyes lost in the dark A spark ignited in her heart A love began in whispers thin Toxic warmth she let him in [Verse 2] Every touch a tangled web Promises they never kept In the night their shadows danced Couldn’t let go of the trance [Chorus] Hearts bound by chains unseen Love was cruel but felt serene Tried to break away again But the warmth pulled them in [Verse 3] Cold mornings with empty talks Whispers echoed down the halls A fight they couldn’t seem to win Separate but drawn within [Bridge] Memories like ghostly dreams Love that’s not as it seems They held on to the bitter taste Of warmth they couldn’t erase [Verse 4] Silent cries beneath the moon Hoping that they’d find a tune To soothe the wounds and find release But the warmth refused to cease
