We spoke in late calls,
In messages that blurred with days,
Laughter crackling through quiet lines,
Familiar in a thousand ways.
Now—
It’s the spaces I hear the most.
The pause before a name I won’t say,
The chats we left somewhere between,
A presence fading… yet somehow seen.
No sharp goodbyes, no falling out,
Just time
Softly turning paths about.
And maybe that’s how closeness fades—
Not in anger,
But in quieter shades....
