Still in the Room

Your cup remains upon the shelf

Untouched, unmoved, like my old self

The door you closed still swings in air

I speak, but you're no longer there

I count the hours, I count the lies

Trying to read truth in your eyes

You said forever, meant for now

Left me questioning the how

We danced in light, now I crawl in dark

Your absence left a brutal mark

I search for signs in dreams each night

But wake alone without the light

The mirror shows a ghost of me

One that still hopes foolishly

I beg the silence to reply

But it's just echoes passing by

We built a world on fragile stone

Now I'm just bricks and you are gone

Our love was loud, now I'm on mute

Your melody replaced with truth

All the songs we used to play

Hurt worse than words you didn't say

I hold your letters like they breathe

But they don't fill what you leave

Your name still flickers in my chest

A haunted beat without the rest

I scream through poems, write in pain

Ink flows like this endless rain

No closure, no final call

Just memories hung on every wall

This room still holds your warmth, your scent

But I don't know where you truly went

I say goodbye each single day

But you still never fade away
