Second Coat (feat. AI Suno)

It was the second coat you laid

A kindness dressed in muted gray

You moved with care as if to slow

The truth you knew I’d come to know

You smiled like love was still in bloom

But I could feel the quiet room

There was a time your voice grew soft

Concern shaped every word you brought

You touched my hand with measured grace

Like love had changed its pace

You didn’t name the ending clear

But absence echoed what I feared

I watched you smooth the edges clean

With words that blurred what lay between

It was the second coat you laid

A kindness dressed in muted gray

You moved with care as if to slow

The truth you knew I’d come to know

You smiled like love was still in bloom

But I could feel the quiet room

You spoke of time of gentle shift

Of seasons turning without rift

And praised the way I used to care

Like something framed no longer there

Each sentence stitched with practiced light

Avoiding dark avoiding fight

But even silence leaves a sound

When something loved is not around

It was the second coat you laid

A kindness dressed in muted gray

You moved with care as if to slow

The truth you knew I’d come to know

You smiled like love was still in bloom

But I could feel the quiet room

You weren’t cruel you weren’t sharp

You simply pulled your hand apart

And gave me something soft instead

To cushion what was left unsaid

It was the second coat you laid

A kindness dressed in muted gray

You moved with care as if to slow

The truth you knew I’d come to know

You smiled like love was still in bloom

But I could feel the quiet room

This was the second coat you laid

So gently drawn but love had strayed

You spoke with care to ease the blow

But silence said what I should know

You left me warmth without the fire

And I had known your first liar
