I Stay Where You Ended - Aliza
Morning light is fading
Across the empty bed
Every quiet heartbeat
Repeats what you said
You said you couldn't do this
Needed something new
Like loving me
Was too much for you
You walked away so certain
Didn't even bend
Well I'm still standing
Where you ended
I replay every sentence
Searching for a sign
Wondering how you untied
The promises we whispered
Laid at night
Like letting go was light
You moved on quickly
Like it never meant
But I stay where you ended
In the moment you left
You closed the door
Like it was pretend
But I stay
Where you ended
Your coffee cup is gone
From the sink
But I still pause
Longer than I think
Your name still echoes
In these walls
Like love
Hasn't left at all
Friends say I'll catch up
With time and then
But time feels frozen
At the end
All I really know
When nights descend
Is I stay
Where you ended
You moved on so thin
Without a bend
But I stay where you ended
In the space you left
You wrote the last line
Didn't even send
And I stay
Where you ended
Maybe someday
I'll take a step past the goodbye
You will never catch
But right now
My heart won't bend
It's still back there
At the end
Morning light is fading
Cold and thin
Every quiet heartbeat
Where you ended
I'm in
