I
watched you go like morning fog
No warning, just the softest drop
Your coat still hangs behind my door
Like maybe you'd come back for more
But silence grows like ivy here
Each wall has learned to hold a tear I see you in the corners
of the sky
Right where light breaks in
You left like a butterfly
No sound,
no fight, just gone in flight One
blink and you were out of sight
I reach but all I catch is night Flutter through my memories
Like you were never mine completely Your cup still
stains the windowsill
It's dry but feels like crying still And all the songs you
used to hum
Now echo when the morning comes I find your shadow in the bloom
Of lilacs fading in my room You left like a butterfly
No sound,
no fight,
just gone in flight One blink and you were out of sight
I reach but all I catch is night Flutter
through my memories
Like you were
never mine completely I should've held you tighter
But you don't cage a butterfly You
whispered something lighter than the air
Then said goodbye
You left like a butterfly No storm,
no blame, just silent skies
You took the colors from my life And left me chasing after light
Flutter through my memory
Still not sure if you were real to me
Just a flash of wings and then
You were never here again
