I found it hanging on my chair
The navy one you used to wear
Still smells like you, still feels like then
Like maybe we're not really the end
Funny how fabric can break your heart
How silence lives in all the parts
You never meant to leave behind
But here I am, rewinding time
You left your hoodie
But took the rest
Left me drowning
In your scent
You said no big deal
But it still feels
Like a love song
That never healed
You left your hoodie
But not goodbye
So tell me why
I wear it when I miss your name
Pretend you're here, just not the same
You said we're fine, we'll keep in touch
But nothing soft ever hurts this much
Every thread holds something real
Every fold says I still feel
I tried to box it up last night
But it curled around my spine
You left your hoodie
Like a ghost
A quiet kind
That haunts the most
I close my eyes
And you return
In every sleeve
In every burn
You left your hoodie
But not goodbye
So tell me why
I should wash it
But can't let go
It's just cotton
But God, it knows
You left your hoodie
Not by chance
You knew I'd fold
You knew I can't
You left one thing
So I'd still miss
The version of us
That felt like this
You left your hoodie
But not goodbye
And neither will I
