Streetlights flicker when she passes, Static curls along the ground, Every shadow leans to listen, When she doesn’t make a sound. She moves like glass across a blade, Never rushing, never late, Every glance a loaded question, Every silence calibrated. Silver rings around her patience, Stormlight hiding in her stare, You forget the shape of exits When you realize she’s there. No confession, no alarm, Just the pull around your heart, You don’t notice when it happens— You’re already in her arms. She’s the calm before the ruin comes, Soft as smoke inside your lungs, Every promise sounds like prayer, When she’s standing in the air. Midnight bends around her tone, You don’t feel the chains until you’re gone. Windows tremble when she breathes slow, Neon halos crown her coat, Every warning tastes like honey, Every threat delivered close. She doesn’t chase and she doesn’t beg, Just lets the orbit pull you in, You swear you still control the moment While she’s counting how you blink. Every step you meant to take back Turns into a vow instead, Every doubt dissolves to silence When she tilts her head. She’s the calm before the ruin comes, Soft as smoke inside your lungs, Every promise sounds like prayer, When she’s standing in the air. Midnight bends around her tone, You don’t feel the chains until you’re gone. You stop counting minutes, Your hands forget their place, You stop asking questions, You lean into her gaze. She doesn’t draw blood, she draws conclusions, Writes your future in her eyes, Every rule becomes a rumor By the time she passes by. You came looking for a monster, Found a mirror in the dark, Now the night keeps getting closer Every time she leaves her mark. She’s the calm before the ruin comes, Soft as smoke inside your lungs, Every promise sounds like prayer, When she’s standing in the air. Midnight bends around her tone, You don’t feel the chains until you’re gone. She never raised her voice once, Never forced you to believe— You stepped into the silence And called it destiny.
