You said your heart’s
a haunted hallway,
Echoes of love still
scratch the walls.
I held your hand through
all the silence,
Believed the words
you never told.
You cried about the
ghosts that hurt you,
But I was standing
right in front,
Waiting for the storm to settle—
While you searched
for someone I’m not.
Hoped time would make you see…
But now you say you’re not ready,
Still healing, still heavy—
But I see you looking past me,
Chasing faces with no depth.
Was I just a quiet shelter,
While you waited out the rain?
You weren’t scared to love again,
You just didn’t want my name.
You dressed it up in faded memories,
But your heart was never here.
I gave you all the time you needed,
You just used it to disappear.
Told myself you needed healing,
So I stayed outside the line—
But now it’s clear you needed someone,
Just not the kind like mine.
Hoping silence turned to will…
Do your shoulders ache
from missing my arms?
Do your lips forget
the shape of my name?
Were those moments real,
or just borrowed warmth—
with no intention to stay?
Now you say you’re not ready,
Still healing, still heavy—
But I see you looking past me,
Chasing faces with no depth.
Was I just a quiet shelter,
While you waited out the rain?
You weren’t scared to love again,
You just didn’t want my name.
I was never the one you wanted—
Just the one who always stayed.
Love’s not what you’re scared of…
It’s just me you pushed away.
