Unspoken, Yet Infinite

 

"Unspoken, Yet Infinite"

 

I stand where the light barely reaches,

watching you from the quiet edges of existence.

A breath away, yet worlds apart,

woven into the same story but reading different pages.

 

I trace the echoes of your laughter,

once a melody, now a memory,

softly fading into spaces where my presence

is a whisper lost in the wind.

 

I do not cross thresholds uninvited,

do not press where warmth has cooled,

but still, my heart stands at the doorway,

never knocking, never turning away.

 

There is love in distance,

a devotion that asks for nothing,

that lingers in the unseen corners,

content with the simple act of being.

 

And though you may never look back,

never hear the silent poetry written in my waiting,

know this—some loves do not vanish,

they simply learn to exist in the quiet.
