You Came When I Couldn't Answer

I wore silence like a habit.
You wore distance like a shield.
Somewhere between pride and waiting, we forgot how to feel.
And time kept moving like it always does; it never stops to ask who stayed.
You came when I couldn't answer,
Called my name too late at night.
Every tear you're shedding now falls where I'm out of sight.
I would've opened every door.
I would've stayed, I would've tried.
But you waited for the ending to say what you denied.
I'm not angry.
Just tired of the distance we became.
If you ever feel me near you, say my name.
