Lyrics
Where we once planned the life we’d live.
The lock still turns; I don’t go in.
Some doors stay closed because they give.
I hear your laugh in the pipes at night,
Then let the silence have its turn.
I’m letting go, not all at once,
But one small ache, one empty room.
I loved you enough to open my hands—
Now I have to leave you room.
Your blue cup’s gone; the ring stayed on,
A pale circle where the dust won’t settle.
I thought that leaving meant I’d feel free;
It feels more like learning a new weather.
I take the long way past your street,
And don’t look up when I pass your door.
Maybe love can end and still be true,
A song that fades but leaves its note.
I’ll keep the part that made me kinder,
And let the rest drift out of reach.
The key stays here; the door stays shut.
I loved you. Now I let you go.
