"I didn't know
it was the last one.
I'd have paid
more attention."
The Last Normal Night
Ivan Solén
"And I said yeah
like it was nothing.
Like it was
just another yeah."
The Last Normal Night
Ivan Solén
"The dishes were still
in the sink.
Two cups, two plates,
two of everything."
The Last Normal Night
Ivan Solén
"I loved you —
not past tense,
present tense,
wrong tense.
Every tense at once."
Lights Were On
Ivan Solén
"Turns out perfect order
is just another word
for late."
Lights Were On

"A man can run
on empty long enough
to almost believe it."
Lights Were On
Ivan Solén
"The last place
you still live
is the last place
I can lose you."
Half The Closet
Ivan Solén
"You were here.
You were real.
You were worth
every single half."
Half The Closet
Ivan Solén
"Found a grocery list
inside a jacket —
Milk and bread
and your handwriting."
Half The Closet
Ivan Solén
"I do my grieving
in the car.
Between the office
and the door."
Nobody's Watching
Ivan Solén
"Turns out love
just needed a Tuesday.
An ordinary Tuesday
that I spent
being almost ready."
Nobody's Watching
Ivan Solén
"Three words, a comma,
then my name
and nothing after."
Nobody's Watching
Ivan Solén
"Don't fix it.
Don't reframe it.
Don't tell me
what it means —
Just sit here."
Just Stay
Ivan Solén
"They want to say
the right thing.
There isn't a right thing.
And I love them
for trying."
Just Stay
Ivan Solén
"Just stay.
Just stay.
Just stay.
That's all."
Just Stay
Ivan Solén
"Still reach for you
at 3am.
And my body
hasn't got the news."
The Other Side
Ivan Solén
"Something about
the middle
feels like saying
it's over."
The Other Side

what my head
was trying to forget."
The Other Side
Ivan Solén
"You looked lighter —
God you looked lighter.
I took the long way home
and cried the whole way."
Seen You Out
Ivan Solén
"I got to watch you
just for a second
being free."
Seen You Out
Ivan Solén
"I think I'm gonna
be okay.
I think I'm gonna
be okay."
Seen You Out
Ivan Solén
"I don't know
where I'm going
but I can't stay here."
Neon & Nothing
Ivan Solén
"Maybe healing
isn't quiet.
Maybe it's this."
Neon & Nothing
Ivan Solén
"I am beautifully,
quietly sane."
Neon & Nothing
Ivan Solén
"The grief and the laugh
can live in the same chest.
I'm proof."
Something Almost Funny
Ivan Solén
"Four seconds
of forgetting
and it felt like
coming up for air."
Something Almost Funny
Ivan Solén
"What kind of man
laughs in the middle
of this?
The kind that's
going to make it."
Something Almost Funny
Ivan Solén
"Not as weight —
as proof.
Proof I loved something
all the way.
Proof I survived it."
New City
Ivan Solén
"Nobody here
knows my name —
and that feels like
a brand new heart."
New City
Ivan Solén
"I need a city
that doesn't know
anything yet."
New City
Ivan Solén

the one who's been
holding everyone
in place?"

I want to be alive."

Four walls of silence
with a man still inside."

do to us boys?"

our whole lives

But not his silence."

Tell your son
you love him."

This was always
enough."

for later —
God I thought
we had the rest."
I Should've Said

"I gave you
what I always gave —
a silence
that you heard."
I Should've Said

the language
of too little
and too late
and goodbye."
I Should've Said
Ivan Solén
"Nobody asks a man
how he feels
about his face."
Glass Man
Ivan Solén
"What a quiet prison.
What a heavy game.
Every man I know
is playing
just the same."
Glass Man
Ivan Solén
"They're all doing it too.
Sucking it in.
Standing a little taller.
They all notice
because they're all
doing it too."
Glass Man
Ivan Solén
"Every 'whatever,'
every 'it's all good' —
was just I love you
in a language
I never understood."
Cool Like That
Ivan Solén
"Beautiful and empty
and gone with the tide.
I said 'that's fine' —
I was dying inside."
Cool Like That
Ivan Solén
"I was never cool.
I just loved you
like that."
Cool Like That
Ivan Solén
"Every apology I ever gave
had an exit
built inside."
Say It Sober

I've been
drinking neat."

when I did it."

I want you back.
I'm saying
I never said goodbye."

on a man who's been told
to keep it moving."

at pretending
you were gone."

of tired men saying
'me too, at last.'"

was just a door
we hadn't found."

Step into the light.
STEP INTO
THE LIGHT."

you'll do
is just exist."

running on empty —
you can rest."

But I'm telling you now.
You were always
enough."

the opposite of strong.
Soft is what you are
when you've been
strong too long."

when the week's
been rough."
