Ashtray on the windowsill
Half-warm coffee
Sunrise spill
You laugh
Say you should go
But your keys stay on the floor

Bare feet on my hardwood floor
You trace circles on my door
Every “I should leave” you say
Just hangs in the room halfway

You kissed my skin
Like you were writing your name in
Slow
Then again
Like you were scared of the ending
Breath on my neck
Time slipped
We both forgot it
You kissed my skin
And everything else went quiet (so quiet)

Phone face down
Your friends all ring
Blue light buzzing
Distant thing
You shrug
Let the silence win
Pull my hoodie
Crawl back in

Curtains breathing in and out
Street hum
Someone yelling loud
Still
All I could hear right then
Was your heartbeat through my chest

You kissed my skin
Like you were writing your name in
Slow
Then again
Like you were scared of the ending
Breath on my neck
Time slipped
We both forgot it
You kissed my skin
And everything else went quiet (oh, quiet)

Are we just a late-night secret
Or a story starting slow
If your taxi waits forever
Would you really want to go

You kissed my skin
Like you were writing your name in
Slow
Then again
Like you were scared of the ending
Breath on my neck
Time slipped
We both forgot it
You kissed my skin
You kissed my skin
And everything else went quiet
