Friendship
The Silence Between Us
The Silence Between Us No words were spoken, but everything was said. Your back turned slowly, and my heart quietly bled. The lights were still on, but the warmth had gone cold. We stood in the same room, yet the distance took hold. I smiled through the shaking, you blinked like the sun. Two souls in a pause, pretending we’re one. I made us coffee, you didn’t take a sip. The mug stayed untouched, like the truth on your lips. There’s dust on the bookshelf and frost on the air. But you wouldn’t notice — you’re barely still there. I whispered, “Don’t leave,” though my mouth made no sound. You walked through the silence without turning around.

Good Morning Poem with a Love Sweater 💞
🌅 Good Morning Poem with a Love Sweater 💞 In the hush of dawn, when dreams still cling, I hear your name in the robin's sing. The sunlight tiptoes through my room, And warms the silence, lifts the gloom. But nothing warms me quite the same, As thoughts of you—just whisper your name. So I reach for comfort, soft and true, My love-worn sweater that smells like you. Threads of warmth, a woven kiss, Each stitch a memory, each seam a bliss. I wrap it close, and in its fold, I feel your arms, both strong and bold. The breeze may chill, the world may race, But I still feel your warm embrace. Though miles apart or just next door, Your love’s the sweater that I adore. So good morning, love—may your heart be light, Like this sweater that holds me tight. You're the warmth in my every day, My morning sun, in every way. 💞
