we don’t talk like we used to

Used to call me on your way home

Used to text me just to check the moon

Now I'm lucky if you like a post

And I guess that's something too

Used to fall asleep on facetime

Your voice was my favorite sound

Now we're just reacting to each other

From a distance not around

We don't talk like we used to

Don't laugh like we used to

Your names still in my phone

But it feels like someone new

I don't ask you don't share

We just breathe the same air

But we don't talk

Not like we used to

Your playlist changed and I noticed

Your stories look a little more free

I guess it's good you're glowing

Even if it's not with me

I still type out how've you been

Then backspace like a fool

Funny how we got so quiet

After being each other's truth

We don't talk like we used to

Don't dream like we used to

Our favorite spots don't hit the same

When I pass them without you

No big fight no big scene

Just a fade between the seams

We don't talk

Not like we used to

Maybe we outgrew the timing

Or just stopped trying

But sometimes I still wait

For your name to light my screen

We don't talk like we used to

Don't cry like we used to

Just seen and sent

Where love used to bloom

We're not strangers not lovers

Just ghosts in each other

And we don't talk

Not like we used to
