Screen glow on my face
Clock says 2:08
Typing out your name
Then I backspace
Half-read receipts
From some old thread
I scroll for proof
You once meant it
Late night
No message
Just me and the questions again
Why’s your silence louder
Than anything you ever said
Late night
No message
I hit refresh on what we were
Staring at a bubble
That never turns to words
Cold coffee ring
On the desk by my bed
Your sweater on the chair
Still holds your shape
Friends say “let it go”
I leave you on “maybe”
Heart stuck on replay
Mind saying “save me”
Late night
No message
Just me and the questions again
Why’s your silence louder
Than anything you ever said
Late night
No message
I hit refresh on what we were
Staring at a bubble
That never turns to words
I talk to the ceiling
Like you’re somewhere listening in
If you typed “I’m sorry”
Would I let you back in
Or leave it on the lock screen
Face down on the floor
Pretend I didn’t see it
Like you did before
Late night
No message
Just me and the questions again
Why’s your silence louder
Than anything you ever said
Late night
No message
I hit refresh on what we were
Staring at a bubble
That never turns to words
