it was one of those survey type things, but with a twist. Basically, it said
"Write something to 7 different people that you'd like them to know, or something that you had to
say, but never could tell them directly, or just something that should have been said sooner or later.
No names, just words."
I realized that it was something that I've wanted to do a lot of the time. Things that I wanted to say, but never did.
This is the sanctuary for those words left unspoken.
Maybe if you're one of the few people who read this, you'll see something that
was once supposed to be directed to you.
In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense
And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows.
