It was daylight
It was dusk
It was painted on plaster walls
A flash-flood soaking weathered carpet
Midnight coffee-stains on
Bookshelves softened
It made ghosts vanish that once did haunt
It was relieving catastrophic tides at dawn
A breath of fresh air in morning voices
Say goodbye? no, I'll just avoid it
Chapters written by the hands of fate
Minutes to hours, it was all the same
Longing glances, bolder everyday
The story of us from the very first page
Rewritten words we never said
Pages of stories, no thing to regret
Honey-sweet coffee with oat milk and cinnamon
A miracle of happenstance, etched in crimson
Every heartache felt forgotten
It cast itself in stage-lit stardom
Being wrapped in warmer sunlight
Weeks on end with hopes held so high
Chapters written by the hands of fate
Minutes to hours, it was all the same
Longing glances, bolder everyday
The story of us from that very first page
So, so long to the world!
How long it did pause
We couldn't see it coming
Our epilogue
We were a million things at once
Until you left me to write the epilogue
So now I leave you with
Our epilogue
Chapters written by the hands of fate
Minutes to hours, it was all the same
Longing glances, colder everyday
The story of us from that very first page
