The city sleeps beneath the snow
While I watch lights from room zero-four-oh
The minibar holds all I feel
Empty glass, nothing real
You swore you'd never walk away
But echoes lie where voices fade
Your coat is gone, the cold remains
I whisper love into the pain
You said you'd stay, through fire, through rain
But promises don’t hold like chains
December’s end, in this hotel
Feels more like dying than farewell
Confetti falls on strangers’ skin
While I drown in what we’ve been
The clock struck twelve, no call, no name
Just silence dressed in holiday shame
I kept your gifts, unopened still
Like wounds that time refuses to heal
You wrote forever on my hand
Now it just smears like sinking sand
I begged the stars, they turned away
Just like you did that final day
You said you'd stay, through fire, through rain
But promises don’t hold like chains
December’s end, in this hotel
Feels more like dying than farewell
The fireworks mean nothing now
Just noise to hide a broken vow
I replay each word, each breath, each lie
Like ghostly film beneath closed eyes
You were the end I didn’t see
Now new year’s starts without me
You said you'd stay, but people change
And love becomes a foreign name
I toast alone to what we were
While strangers kiss, and memories blur
If I don’t wake when morning's near
Just know: I stayed
When you disappeared
