In the market of voices,
where every word rings out loud,
where silence is rare, like a hidden gem,
is there a mirror that can bring us peace?
Years go by like long, winding roads—
the same stories, the same sights, the same endless search.
But when we meet, in a quiet, shared moment,
it feels like something slips away,
someone we thought we knew
yet can never seem to hold close.
Is she my shadow, or am I her mirror?
She lives in my heart,
a shape made from my own light,
yet I don’t know her name.
She walks beside me like a gentle ghost,
familiar and safe, but just out of reach,
forever near but never mine to touch.
Like the first light of morning,
where each ray wakes up slowly,
where every sleepy eyelid opens in soft quiet,
the sun spills its warmth gently, bit by bit.
And in that gentle light, each tiny speck floats free,
and it feels like someone is slipping away,
fading into the morning glow—
as if each bit of light holds a clue,
not to who they are… but to who I am.
Who is this nameless presence
that moves in step with my own heart,
appearing and vanishing like a memory,
woven into me yet forever just beyond my grasp?
