Nothing Breaks Like This

Left the door open

Just to feel the air move

Rooms still echo

With nothing left to prove

Spoke in whispers

Like the walls would hear

Time walks heavy

But it disappears

Nothing breaks like this

Quiet, clean, and thin

No sound, no spark

Just the air wearing thin

It's not fire, it's not fight

It just ends where it begins

Nothing breaks

Like this

Tried to hold it

But it slipped like steam

Memory fades

But it stains the seams

You weren't gone

You were just not there

Like breath on glass

Like a half-filled stare

Nothing breaks like this

No crash, no twist

Just the slow retreat

Of something you miss

It's not sharp, it's not loud

Just a vanishing script

Nothing breaks

Like this

I still sit

In the space you left

But it doesn't hurt

It just forgets

Nothing breaks like this

Not with blood, not with bliss

Just a quiet line

Where we used to exist

I let go, I persist

Yeah, nothing breaks

Like this
