Cut me wide,
let the truth spill out
This isn't mercy,
it's the cost of doubt
I didn’t break the way you planned
I held the fire in my hands
You wanted quiet,
I roared instead
A hurricane
Inside my chest
You called it peace when you walked away
But I still wake with your name
Like a scar behind my teeth
Like something
I can't rinse clean
You left, but you still remain
A bruise I sing through every day
I wasn't still
I shook the ground
You wanted shadows,
I gave sound
No apology for thunder skies
I never learned to whisper lies
No soft goodbye,
no fading line
Just silence dressed up as divine
But peace should never taste like ash
And I still carry what we had
You called it peace when you turned away
But I still wake with your name
Not just a bruise, not just a sting
It’s carved into my everything
You left, but I remain
With your storm beneath my skin
