The Shoes by the Door - CAELIS Babylon
Two pairs lying by the door each night
Yours a pair, mine worn by time
You used to laugh, say you care for them more
I smiled, but the joke felt so
Then one morning, quieter
Your shoes were gone, yellow dust and stare
You left, and I still kept your space
Right by the door, that empty place
I thought you'd come, I thought you'd call
But silence filled it all
A note still lies upon the table
Words too calm to find them stable
I called your name through the static tone
The ring just said I'm still alone
Each night I lie, mind side by side
Pretending absence could be tied
You left, and I still kept your space
Right by the door, that empty place
I thought you'd come, I thought you'd call
But silence filled it all
The dust now settles where you stood
I finally learned what moving could
Barefoot steps across the floor
The pain reminds me what it's for
You left, and I still kept your space
Until I learned to find my pace
I move my shoes apart once more
And walk barefoot through the door
