Only A Moment

Verse 1

It wasn't loud, it wasn't flames

Just silence falling like the rain

No slammed doors, no final scene

Just you not looking back at me

And maybe that's the hardest part

No heartbreak song, no shattered art

Just quiet — like we both agreed

To let go without the need to bleed

It was only a moment

But it still lingers on my skin

Like perfume in the folds

Of a coat I won't wear again

We didn't fight, we didn't cry

But something broke without goodbye

It was only a moment

But it still feels like the end

I pass the café we used to love

And it still plays our song sometimes

I smile like I'm above it all

But that's the lie I tell at night

And I replay the little things

The way you'd hum or brush my ring

Not every love needs crashing sound

Some just vanish without being found

It was only a moment

But it carved itself so deep

Like a line in a story

That I wasn't meant to keep

We didn't scream, we didn't bend

But something soft just reached its end

It was only a moment

But it's the one I still repeat

I see you in places you've never been

In strangers' words, in quiet wind

You were a whisper, not a storm

But you still changed my form

It was only a moment

But it still lingers in my chest

Like a verse we never wrote

But somehow sang the best

And though it hurts, I won't pretend

That I would choose a different end

It was only a moment

But it will never be less
