A Heart Slower Than Fog

I looked at you with a heart slower than fog

The closer you came, the fainter you became

Only your name spread across the dawn window

And I crossed the night with a breath slower than words

Feelings that arrive one step too late always remain behind

Quietly trembling at the edge of where you left

You fall across a heart slower than fog

Like light that slips farther away the more I hold it

A love that never ended stays like moisture

Running slowly through my fingertips

Blue light lies down across the empty street

There is time standing still beneath the wet signal

The seasons of lips that never called your name

Keep breathing long inside me

The night I thought I forgot returns again

Soaking my chest like a blurred wave

You fall across a heart slower than fog

Becoming clearer even as you fade

The scene I never spoke becomes an aftersound

Lingering at the edge of every dawn

You are already far away, but my heart still

Moves at the speed of that slow night

If love always arrives too late

Then I'll wait for you through this dawn too

You fall across a heart slower than fog

Like warmth that never fully disappears

Even as time moves, I'll walk the same night

Leaning toward you until the end
