Feel It in My Bones

Something in the way the air stays still

Like a whisper moving through my will

I don’t see it, but it’s close

Every breath already knows

I can feel it in my bones

Not a sound, but it grows

Like a signal under skin

Pulling me from deep within

I can feel it in my bones

When I’m standing here alone

No direction, no control

Still it’s taking hold

Streetlight shadows on my face

Time slows down, then changes pace

Every thought I try to frame

Slips away without a name

I don’t chase it when it comes

I don’t stop it when it runs

Every moment leaves a trace

Then it fades without a face

There’s a tension I can’t fake

In the choices that I make

Every step I didn’t plan

Still arrives right where I am

I can feel it in my bones

Not a sound, but it grows

Like a signal under skin

Pulling me from deep within

I can feel it in my bones

When the night starts feeling close

No escape and no defense

Just a quiet consequence

Windows open, curtains breathe

City hums beneath the street

Every silence feels intact

Nothing here demands a pact

I don’t need it clarified

I don’t push it to decide

What is meant to cross my line

Doesn’t ever ask for time

If I name it, it might break

If I hold it, it might shake

So I let it pass me through

Like a truth I never knew

I can feel it in my bones

Even when I’m not alone

Every place I try to leave

Finds another way to speak

I can feel it in my bones

Not a weight, but not a ghost

Something real I can’t outgrow

Still it pulls me close
