The window hums with autumn rain,
Your coat still hangs behind the door.
The scent of you is fading slow,
But I can’t feel you anymore.
The world keeps turning quietly,
While I am frozen in this place.
I whisper to the evening light,
And see your shadow’s trace.
Falling through the light, I reach for what remains,
A name that breaks like fragile glass in pain.
The stars collapse into my hands tonight
And I’m still falling through the light.
The clock forgets to breathe at dawn,
The air stands still, the night won’t end.
Every dream becomes your voice,
And I wake just to pretend.
Maybe grief is just a room
Where time refuses to begin.
I keep its door forever open,
For the ghost I let within.
Falling through the light, I reach for what remains,
Your name dissolves in every rain.
The stars go out without a fight
And I am gone beneath the light.
