I Don t Believe It s Over

A cycle of poems «When Your Love Turns to Ashes»

Empty coffee cups and scattered notes
Ghosts of laughter caught in my throat
Dust motes dancing in the fading light
Reminiscing on you late into the night

They say it's done, they say it's through
But darling, I don't believe it's true
There's a flicker still, a burning ember
I don't believe it's over, not yet, remember?

Tried to pack you neatly in a box
Labeled 'Memories,' put under lock and stocks
But you keep escaping, sneaking through the cracks
Haunting every corner, never looking back

They say it's done, they say it's through
But darling, I don't believe it's true
There's a flicker still, a burning ember
I don't believe it's over, not yet, remember?

Maybe I'm delusional, clinging to a dream
Blind to the wreckage, refusing to scream
But the way you looked at me, the touch of your hand
That kind of magic doesn't just disband

They say it's done, they say it's through
But darling, I don't believe it's true
There's a flicker still, a burning ember
I don't believe it's over, not yet, remember?

Maybe it's foolish, maybe it's wrong
But my heart still beats with the echo of our song
I'll hold on tight, against the pouring rain
'Cause I don't believe it's over, not over again.
I don't believe it's over... until you say it's the end.
