Something hangs in the air
not heavy,not light
a silence that speaks more
than words could ever hold.

Between you and me
something unspoken drifts
no fight,no peace
just the in-between.

Your eyes just miss mine
as if they're searching for permission
or forgiveness
I don't know.

We walk side by side
but not together
breathe the same air
but in a different rhythm.

And still
there's something
that remains
unnamed, untouched
but real.
