Turning A Page

Verse 1
The sun sets slow on this fading day,
I see your faces, but they feel far away.
Laughter lingers in the hollow air,
But something’s shifting like you’re not really there.

Pre-Chorus
I’m turning the page, but my hands won’t let go,
Holding on tight to the days I know.

Chorus
Goodbye to the nights we never thought would end,
Goodbye to the streets where we were more than friends.
I’m fighting it down, but I feel it rearrange,
I’m scared to lose you, but I’m turning the page.

Verse 2
Photos fading like echoes in my mind,
Words unsaid that I’ll never find.
The clock keeps ticking like a quiet thief,
Stealing moments and stealing belief.

Pre-Chorus
I’m turning the page, but my heart stays behind,
Caught in the silence of a goodbye.

Chorus
Goodbye to the nights we never thought would end,
Goodbye to the streets where we were more than friends.
I’m fighting it down, but I feel it rearrange,
I’m scared to lose you, but I’m turning the page.

Bridge
Maybe one day the past will feel like home,
But right now I’m lost, and I’m scared to be alone.

Chorus
Goodbye to the nights we never thought would end,
Goodbye to the streets where we were more than friends.
I’m fighting it down, but I feel it rearrange,
I’m scared to lose you, but I’m turning the page.

  • the hand

    there is a hand squeezing my heart

    tight slow like it knows every part of me

    holding on to the pieces i’m leaving behind

    the empty rooms the silent voices the half spoken goodbyes

    it does not let go

  • Dress

    sometimes the dress feels like a soft breath

    a quiet hope wrapped in fabric

    that touches my skin like a secret i’m afraid to speak aloud

    it’s the way light moves when i twirl

    the way i feel seen without saying a word

  • summer

    the air tastes like honey and promise

    sticky with the scent of blooming jasmine

    and freshly cut grass that crunches beneath bare feet

    the sky drips blue

    stretching wider every afternoon
