Sequel to Starlight

I was drafting blueprints in the dark
Sketching years we hadn’t lived yet
While you archived every fracture
Like evidence you’d need later

Your smile was a soft filter
Over footage only you could see
I kept reaching for the next scene
You were stuck on the ones that bleed
We shared a bed and separate stories
Mine full of open doors and light

The screen went dark, the room went still
Reel tore loose and I never heard the sound
I kept building us a future
While you deleted every frame I found
Different films, same white wall
I wrote the sequel, we burned it all

Now the projector’s cold and empty
The reel snapped somewhere I couldn’t hear
I was making my life around your outline
You were already erasing the print

Yours a loop of quiet regrets
You never let the camera cut away
I thought the quiet meant safety
Thought the silence was just peace
You were cataloguing the weight
Of every moment I called home

The screen went dark, the room went empty
Reel tore loose and I never heard the sound
I kept building us a future
While you erased every frame I found
Different films, same white wall
I wrote the sequel, we burned it all

I still catch myself reaching
For a future that only existed
On my side of the glass
While you held the hurt like a keepsake

The screen went dark, the room went empty
Reel tore loose and I never heard the sound
I kept building us a future
While you erased every frame I found
Different films, same white wall
I wrote the sequel, we burned it all

No more starlight, no more falling
Just the afterimage of two people
Who never watched the same story
And called it love anyway
