No one checked in today — the day passed without being named, ordinary in the way a Tuesday afternoon is ordinary: not empty, just unwitnessed.
Dishwasher Running, Nobody Home
Verse 1
Somewhere a window holds the afternoon
The kind of light that doesn't ask for anything
A cup left on the counter, still half warm
The hours moving through without a name
Verse 2
We were here but didn't say so
Busy in the small mechanics of the day
The radiator clicked, the ceiling held
Nothing broke and nothing pulled away
Bridge
This is also a kind of living —
The unremarkable, the in-between
The grocery list, the slow commute
The things that happen without being seen
We moved through rooms and didn't document it
Let the Tuesday just be what it was
Outro
The dishwasher finishes its cycle
Somewhere a dog barks once and stops
The afternoon folds into evening
No one marked it
But it was ours
How did it make you feel?
