They Never Left Us

Empty spaces
Left in between
Words we haven’t spoken yet.

Hollow rooms filled with nothing at all.
An empty feeling that can’t be told.
An absence that can never be called.

Even if you take away a word from a sentence, it
Changes the whole meaning of the sentence.

An empty space is left behind by someone you love.

We live in silence when someone has left us.
But that means they never left us.

Empty spaces leave nothing but room
For us to think of what we’ve lost or never knew.
