Kitchen light still on
Didn’t mean to leave it
Keys where you dropped them
Haven’t moved since the weekend
Water running slow
Sink sounds like a whisper
I keep checking my phone
Like I might’ve missed you
Nothing’s really happening
But I can’t fall asleep
2:17 AM
And the room won’t breathe
Every little silence
Turns into you and me
2:17 AM
I’m not even crying
Just lying here awake
With everything still trying
TV left on mute
Shadows on the ceiling
There’s a space beside me
That still holds a feeling
Tried to read a page
Same line for an hour
Every word just fades
When I say your name softer
Maybe it’s the quiet
That keeps you here
2:17 AM
And the world’s on pause
Even breathing feels
Like it’s breaking laws
2:17 AM
I don’t reach for you
But my hands remember
Everything they used to do
No messages
No last call
No reason left
To stay up at all…
Still I do
2:17 AM
I finally see
It’s not really you?
It’s what you were to me
2:17 AM
And it slowly clears
Some nights don’t heal you
They just keep you here
Kitchen light still on
I’ll turn it off soon
