The screen lights up in the dark of my room
Your name still lives in my phone
But the silence feels louder than thunder tonight
I type…
delete…
type again.

Midnight whispers through a cracked window
Streetlights flicker like dying stars
Your laughter echoes in the hallway of memory
But the door to you is locked in the past
Your hoodie still hangs on the chair
Like you might walk back in someday
But you never do.

I sent another message to nowhere
Watching the typing bubble that never appears
My heart refreshes the same empty page
Again… and again…

Your ghost left me on read tonight
Blue checkmarks burning in the dark
I’m talking to someone who isn’t alive
But your silence answers louder than words
Your ghost left me on read again
A love that lives inside my phone
If you’re still haunting this lonely chat
Why won’t you type me home?

Every memory loads like a broken video
Buffering tears in my chest
We promised forever under neon skies
Now forever just means unread texts
Your voice still lingers in old voicemails
Like echoes trapped in time
I play them
just to hear you breathe.

I know you’re gone
The world keeps saying it’s true
But the last message still says
“Delivered to you.”

Your ghost left me on read tonight
Blue checkmarks cutting through my soul
I’m screaming into a silent screen
Begging the dead to make me whole
Your ghost left me on read again
But I still wait in this glowing room
If love survives beyond the grave
Then why…
won’t you…
text me soon?

The glow of the screen paints ghosts on the wall
Every notification makes my heartbeat fall
Scrolling through memories I can't uninstall
Your name in my contacts still breaking it all
Digital roses on messages sent
Love turned data — emotions compressed
Every “last seen” leaves a hole in my chest
A future that vanished inside of a text
I replay the voicemails deep in the night
Your breathing like static between wrong and right
They say letting go is the healthy way out
But your echo keeps pulling my heart back to doubt
So I type in the dark like a prayer to the void
Every letter a hope that my grief gets destroyed
But the cursor just blinks like it's laughing at me
Three little dots that will never just be
Maybe love doesn't die, maybe it just uploads
Somewhere beyond where the signal still goes
If heaven has Wi-Fi and souls have a phone
Then maybe one day you’ll message me home
But tonight it's just silence inside of the glow
A chat with a ghost that I'll never let go
The last thing I whisper before I log off
“I’m still here…
if you ever come back.

Your ghost left me on read tonight…
Your ghost left me on read tonight…
Your ghost left me on read …
