Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your hoodie on my chair Sleeves still rolled the way you wore them Coffee stain on the cuff From that August morning I water plants you picked out Talk to them like you moved back in Your toothbrush in the same glass Like I'm scared to admit it’s done [Chorus] We lost the love But not the habits Still set a place for you at night My hands reach out into the silence Like you might be there on my right We lost the love But kept the echoes Every room still says your name I changed the sheets I changed the curtains But I wake up feeling just the same [Verse 2] Your brothers' photos on my phone Their birthdays still in my calendar I scroll past your old messages Like stepping around broken glass Our friends say I should "start again" Swipe my way into a brand new future But every face is just a blur Against the outline of your jaw [Chorus] [Bridge] I boxed your letters in the closet Marked them "miscellaneous things" But I know every word by heart Every promise Every spring I keep rehearsing what I’d tell you If you walked back through that door "I'm fine I've grown I hardly miss you" While my eyes give up the war [Chorus]

folk, Sparse piano ballad with intimate female vocals right up on the mic; soft pads bloom in the chorus, with distant reverbs that feel like an empty room. Verses stay fragile and close, letting breaths and tiny cracks show; chorus lifts with layered harmonies and a slow, dragging drum pulse. Subtle strings swell in the bridge, then everything strips back to just voice and keys on the final line., sad
