Threads Unwind

We used to talk until the night ran out,

Every word just flowed, no doubt.

Now the silence grows between the lines,

I scroll and wait but there’s nothing this time.

Maybe it’s life, maybe it’s me,

But something’s gone we used to see.

The rhythm’s broken, it’s hard to say,

How a bond can just slip away.

There’s a shift I can’t ignore,

We don’t talk the way before.

Messages fade, the thread unwinds,

And I’m left replaying better times.

Too busy now, that’s what we say,

But I feel the distance every day.

The flow was easy, now it’s strained,

And nothing feels the same.

Maybe it’s life, maybe it’s me,

But something’s gone we used to see.

I reach for you but slip instead,

Talking to echoes in my head.

There’s a shift I can’t ignore,

We don’t talk the way before.

Messages fade, the thread unwinds,

And I’m left replaying better times.

Was it just time pulling us apart?

Or did I miss the beat of your heart?

I don’t blame you, but it still stings,

Losing the sound of familiar things.

There’s a shift I can’t ignore,

We don’t talk the way before.

Messages fade, the thread unwinds,

And I’m left replaying better times.

Better times…
