Late bus rolling under city rain
Water on my collar, steady pace
Streetlights blur into passing faces
Everyone moving, no one waiting
I tell myself I'll say it clean
But words get quiet when I see you

I'm still showing up, even when I hesitate
Standing where I said I'd stay
I'm still showing up, no easy way out
I don't disappear when it gets loud

You sit across with your hands still
Coffee cooling, time standing still
No phone between us, no escape
Just the sound of rain against the glass
I talk slow, you don't interrupt
Like you're hearing more than just the words

I'm still showing up, even when I hesitate
Standing where I said I'd stay
I'm still showing up, no easy way out
I don't disappear when it gets loud

I've learned distance doesn't teach a thing
If you never step into the moment
Waiting only sharpens doubt
Presence is the only proof
I don't promise perfect timing
Only that I won't leave early

I'm still showing up, even when I hesitate
Standing where I said I'd stay
I'm still showing up, no easy way out
I don't disappear when it gets loud

I used to think arriving late meant failing
Now I know leaving early hurts more
If this is all the time we get
I won't spend it halfway out the door

I'm still showing up, right here tonight
No second screen, no double life
I'm still showing up, rain or doubt
This is me, fully now

The rain keeps falling at our feet
I stay
I stay
