the sound of nothing falling
↓
the night kept replaying itself
like it forgot how to end

each shadow looked a little misplaced
like it had wandered off from another memory

the windows were breathing again
soft, rhythmic
like waves that never learned to crash

somewhere behind the walls
a machine was dreaming
it hummed in lowercase
something gentle, something almost kind

you said, listen,
but there was nothing to hear
only the echo of what sound used to be

streetlights blinked without reason
their light felt distant, exhausted
like it was trying to remember
why it ever touched anything at all

the city exhaled dust
the air trembled
everything shimmered for a second
then forgot why

we walked until the silence became heavy
our footsteps out of sync
as if time had lost count

a bird moved across the sky
but it looked more like a glitch
than flight

i thought of gravity
and how softly it holds us
when it’s tired of pulling

the sound of nothing falling
was louder than we expected

AFTERIMAGE SLEEP

THE SOUND OF NOTHING FALLING

LISTEN-BUY-SHARE

afterimage sleep.
↓
there was a room
i can’t remember if it was real
or a replay from a night that never happened

dust floating like lost pixels
the hum of an unplugged monitor
still dreaming of its light

you were there, i think
wearing that silence again
the kind that folds around a word before it’s born

i tried to say something small
but the air cut my voice into lowercase
like a secret the sky forgot to keep

time kept buffering
and the clocks were all set to maybe
you smiled the way static does
when it thinks no one’s watching

somewhere the rain pressed rewind
and we stood under it
as if to remember what warmth felt like

your hand flickered through mine
transparent, impatient, slow
and i swear i saw the whole world breathe once
then fall asleep again

the city outside
looked like it missed its own reflection
windows blinking like tired stars
each one holding a version of us that stayed

then: fade / repeat / echo / nothing
just the soft collapse of memory
into the same blue noise that started everything

everything glows for a second

EVERYTHING GLOWS FOR A SECOND

a light that never found the ground.
↓
the street forgot its name
and the air stopped meaning anything
you looked up
and the sky flinched

we were outlines
stuck between two screens
half awake
half erased

the light came in slow motion
like it was scared to touch us
we didn’t move
we were already gone

the static hummed a little too long
like it was trying to say something
but forgot what language was

everything felt borrowed
even the silence
especially the silence

by morning
nothing had changed
except the part of us
that stopped pretending to stay

A LIGHT THAT NEVER FOUND THE GROUND
