Sigh!

Sometimes, the sadness is not loud,

It doesn’t scream or shout.

It’s the quiet ache in your chest,

The weight of a heart that can’t rest.

…………..

It’s the tears that don’t fall,

But linger just beneath your eyes,

Waiting for a moment to break free,

But it slips away as just a sigh.

…………..

The lingering sigh in you

Is perhaps not the tired,

But the weight of pain,

lingering slowly in the dark,

Dragging you down with every mark of sigh.
