Velvet scars

Mmm… yeah

Soft light, slow room, your name on my lips

You move like satin, hands like a hush,

Left fingerprints of thunder on my fragile trust.

Your whisper is a season that comes and goes,

Leaves me in the cold when I need you close.

I counted constellations in the lines of your face,

Hoping constancy would find its place.

But there’s a shadow in the way you leave,

A quiet hurricane that steals my sleep.

And I learn to pretend the nights don’t know your name,

Still my heartbeat answers when you breathe my same.

You set the match and watched me learn to burn,

Now every tender moment keeps the lesson turned.

Oh, the pain you cause, baby, it’s a slow-song wound,

Velvet scars that hum under the moon.

I keep coming back for a love that’s half-light, half-flame,

Drowning in the after of a love that won’t remain.

Oh, the pain you cause — darling, do you see?

You take and leave the parts of me that tried to be free.

You speak in promises soft as rain,

But you disappear like summer, and I’m left with the stain.

Your touch is poetry that breaks like glass,

Beautiful and brutal in the moments that pass.

I memorize the silence where your laughter once lived,

Trace the places where your absence digs.

I tried to frame you in forgiveness, gild the hurt with grace,

But forgiveness keeps the echo of your face.

I call your name into the night — it sounds like a plea,

You drift like a ship that won’t anchor to me.

I give you everything and still I feel the cost,

Counting every piece of me that you lost.

Oh, the pain you cause, baby, it’s a hush that screams,

A tender war between our fragile dreams.

I keep coming back though the truth is plain —

You’re the quiet thunder, I’m the open vein.

Oh, the pain you cause — tell me why you roam,

Leaving me to gather all the shards of home.

If love’s a language, you taught me new words —

How to forgive the echo of unheard hurts.

If sorrow’s a color, you painted me deep,

Now the midnight keeps the secrets I keep.

I don’t want to hate you — I want to hold you still,

But mercy is a choice that can’t bend your will.

So I learn to breathe through the ache in my chest,

Build a quiet life from the parts you left blessed.

Mmm — babe, you left a map of ache on my skin,

Traced the fragile edges of where love should begin.

I fold up the memories, tuck them in a drawer,

But sometimes midnight opens them once more.

Oh, the pain you cause, baby, like a hymn gone wrong,

I’m singing through the wounds to make myself strong.

I keep reaching out for something whole and true,

Hoping the next touch is a shelter, not the ruin of you.

Oh, the pain you cause — I’ll carry it and grow,

Turn velvet scars to lessons only time can know.

Porque music
