Paper hearts in every window
Mine’s just glass and streetlight blue
Reservations under last names
That will never be mine with you

I tell myself it’s only noise
A date, a sale, a theme
But every year it pulls the thread
From some unraveling dream

Tonight it’s just me and the quiet
No roses, no candlelight glow
Just a name no one is calling
In a room that already knows

Another February bleeding
Into walls that never speak
I’m so tired of waking hopeful
And ending every year this weak

I kept the card from years ago
Blank inside, like now
I thought by this point in my life
I’d have learned the how

How to be enough for someone
How to finally stay
Instead I fold into the dark
And let the hours take the day

Tonight it’s just me and the quiet
No roses, no candlelight glow
Still a heart in the silence
Beating soft and low

Another year, same shadow
Same doubt I can’t outrun
How many times can hope rise up
Before it’s finally done

Maybe I was meant to witness
Other people’s vows
Stand outside the warmth of it
And learn to live somehow
Or maybe love is circling
Just past what I can see
And I’m the only one awake
In this house that’s swallowing me
