I left my jacket in the hallway With the weight I couldn't name Your shadow moved across the ceiling Like it still remembered rain There's a light above the kitchen That keeps flickering in code Like a satellite collapsing Over some forgotten road I keep talking to the silence Like it owes me something back But it only learns my voice Then disappears into the cracks I found your letters in the drawer Beneath the batteries and thread All the words were still alive But all the meanings had gone dead There's a humming in the carpet Where your footsteps used to stay Like the house became a mouth But forgot what it should say I keep wearing my old sadness Like a sweater out of season Warm enough to keep me breathing Thin enough to feel the leaving We were careful with the matches But careless with the flame You called it getting older I called it losing shape Now every room between us Has forgotten how to change Are we just static between stations Two ghosts inside the signal Trying to sound like something sacred Through a broken little hymn I loved you in a language That my body couldn't finish You held me like a secret I was already learning to forgive And I don't know where the hurt goes When nobody let's it speak But it sleeps beneath the floorboards And it whispers when we dream I still pass the laundromat Where we watched our clothes turn blue Spinning circles like a planet That was trying to outlive you Every window in this city Keeps reflecting someone else And I hate how much I miss you When I barely miss myself I still keep your name unspoken Like a bruise beneath my tongue Some things don't become a memory They just stay forever young There's a bookmark in the novel Where the ending never came I was waiting for a rescue You were waiting for a blame We were gentle with the silence But violent with the truth You called it self-protection I called it losing you Now all the stars above us Look like holes the light fell through Are we just static between stations Two ghosts inside the signal Trying to sound like something sacred Through a broken little hymn I loved you in a language That my body couldn't finish You held me like a secret I was already learning to forgive And I don't know where the hurt goes When nobody let's it speak But it sleeps beneath the floorboards And it whispers when we dream I don't want another ending Dressed in ordinary light I don't want to call it healing Just because I sleep at night I don't want to be the reason You stop looking at the sky But I can't keep being the weather For a heart that won't stay dry Maybe we were never broken Maybe we were overdrawn Two small debts of tenderness That kept collecting after dawn Maybe every almost Has a cemetery too Full of versions of ourselves That never learned what not to do Are we just static between stations Two ghosts inside the signal Trying to sound like something sacred Through a broken little hymn I loved you in a language That my body couldn't finish You held me like a secret I was already learning to forgive And I don't know where the hurt goes When nobody let's it speak But it sleeps beneath the floorboards And it whispers when we dream I left my jacket in the hallway I left my heart beside the door Maybe leaving is a country We have both been living for If you hear me through the static Don't answer anymore Just remember we were human Before we became the storm
