I spoke too soon, you moved too late

We folded fast, but called it fate

You drew a line, I crossed it blind

Then claimed I knew what’s on your mind

The air was warm, the floor was still

You asked for calm, I gave you thrill

We held our breath, ignored the shift

Then named the weight a kind of gift

⸻

You said “It’s better left unclear”

But kept your rhythm in my ear

⸻

Just flashes we couldn’t hold

Moments bent but never told

No direction, no escape

But I still ran anyway

If this is all we ever had

Let me forget it while it’s bad

But keep the pulse that made it right —

Those passing sparks that felt like light

⸻

I traced your voice inside the track

Each word a loop I played right back

You said “don’t look,” I looked instead

You watched me burn, then turned your head

We lost the thread, but kept the beat

Rewrote the truth to make it sweet

The room was bare, the tone was dry

But you still knew just where to lie

⸻

No warning

No flare

Just rhythm

Then air

No signal

No sound

But something

Still found

⸻

Just flashes we couldn’t keep

Too close to feel, too wide to leap

No story left, no plan to fake

Just beats we bend but never break

If this was always meant to fade

Then let me echo where we stayed

And hold that pulse that made it right —

A single touch that burned like light
