Verse by @otis.lowlight

i am not sorry for the way i loved out loud the birds do not know we broke up i wore your city like a borrowed coat the sea does not remember any of our names

the map was wrong but the walking was right i keep the porch light on for nobody winter came in through the window we never fixed you left your jacket on the chair like a promise

i saved the last cigarette for a braver night the church bell is just a bell on tuesdays you were a rumor i believed twice you were a rumor i believed twice

the dog still waits by the door at six the bus came and i did not get on the mirror learned my face by accident the calendar keeps making promises

the streetlamp buzzed like a held breath i keep the porch light on for nobody i speak to the version of you that listens the floorboards keep the score

i left the door unlocked for a season the radio only plays the parts i remember i am not sorry for the way i loved out loud
