We left the doors unlatched,
unclaimed,
and chose a silence over names
A world of hearts we couldn't hold,
a story left untold
We walked alone in crowded rooms,
danced with shadows,
hummed our tunes
In every step we tried to voice,
we were orphans of our own choice
No hand to guide, no anchor near,
only echoes we could hear
Cholanu,
hear me out
Because we humans are not like this.
You are going to sleep at night with so much pride and
not speaking to anyone.
Don't trust anyone.
Life is full of fake people who pretend to care.
But when you need them
the most,
they are nowhere to be found.
IT hurts.
But it teaches you to trust yourself.
Keep your heart safe and let the real ones
prove they deserve a place in your life.
We were orphans of our own choice.
A quiet storm, a silent voice.
We faced the dark,
we faced the night and found a way to hold the light.
You may never hear our noise,
but still we bloom despite the void.
We were
orphans of our own choice.
Alone together,
hearts unspoken.
