Day After Day

Sunrise stains the windowpane in gold. Another night I barely slept at all. Coffee cold, the silence starts to scream. Tracing shadows of a fading dream. Footsteps echo down a nameless street. Heartbeat matching time I can't defeat. Day after day, I walk this line between your Ghost and what is mine. Words unsaid still burn my throat like firelight Through winter cold. Day after day, I wear the ache of every Choice I couldn't make. But still, I rise, though skies stay gray. Day after day. Day after day. Day Day after day. Your Sweater hangs where you left it last, Smelling faintly of summers past. I scroll through photos I should delete, But keep the ones where we both smile Incomplete. Rain taps codes on the rooftop glass, Translating all the things I let unmask. Day after day, I walk this line between your Ghost and what is mine. Words unsaid still burn my throat like firelight Through winter cold. Day after day, I wear the ache of every Choice I couldn't make. But still, I rise, though skies stay gray. Day after day. Day after day. Day after day. Day after day. Maybe healing isn't a sudden flame, But learning to whisper your name without pain. One breath, then another, I stay. One foot, then the next, I obey. Day after day, I walk this line between your Ghost and what is mine. Words unsaid still burn my throat like firelight Through winter cold. Day after day, I wear the ache of every Choice I couldn't make. But still, I rise, though skies stay gray. Day after day. Day after day. Day after day. And I'm still here. And I'm still here. And I'm still here. And I'm still here.
