Stay In Your Lane

Stay in your lane

Where the shadows know your name

Where the road keeps whispering  

That nothing here  

Was built for two

Stay in your lane  

Don’t drift into my quiet

Don’t test the guardrails  

I welded from old warnings  

And half healed scars

Stay in your lane

Because crossing over  

Turns headlights into knives

Turns distance into danger

Turns curiosity into collision

Stay in your lane

I’ve seen what happens  

When people wander  

Into places  

They were never meant to fit

Stay in your lane  

Not out of fear

But out of truth

Some paths run parallel  

For a reason

Never touching

Never merging

Never meant  

To share the same sky

Stay in your lane

And I’ll stay in mine

Two roads stretching forward

Close enough to see

Far enough to survive
