I Left Before You Said Goodbye

I grabbed my coat, you held the door
No big goodbye, just less and more
I nodded once, you raised your brow
But silence felt too strong somehow
I left before you said goodbye
Afraid I'd break if you would try
So now I live with what you might
Have said if I had stayed that night
Your shoes stayed still, I didn’t turn
Regret’s the flame I let just burn
Goodbyes don’t always need a sound
But echoes ring when none are found
And in that space, I still replay
What I ran from that final day
