You Don't Live Here - NiExshadow
Your mug is still by the sink
Like you're coming back tonight
I keep the door unlocked
Out of habit and out of hope this time
Your shadow leans against the wall
When the evening turns to blue
Every room still says your name
But you don't live here, you do
I rearrange the furniture
But not my heart
You don't live here
But you're everywhere I go
In the quiet of the hallway
And the way I say hello
You don't live here
But your echo doesn't care
This house is full of memories
And you don't live here
I learned the sound of empty keys
Hit in the kitchen floor
I still listen for your steps
That won't come through the door
I sleep on one side of the bed
Like the other's still reserved
I memorized you leaving
Before I knew I was hurt
They say I'll get used to the space
But space still has your shape
You don't live here
But your laughter fills the air
In the cracks of every moment
In the dust of every prayer
You don't live here
But my heart didn't move out
It's still waiting where you left it
Wondering how
If walls could talk they'd tell you
I loved you all the way
Even when you packed your silence
And carried it away
I'm not asking you to come back
I'm just asking me to breathe
Without your ghost reminding me
Of who I used to be
You don't live here
But you're home to me somehow
I'm learning how to stand alone
In the quiet of right now
You don't live here
And that's the hardest truth
Not that you're gone from this place
But you're gone from me too
So I turn off all the lights tonight
And lock the door for the first time
You don't live here
A part of me
Still does
