One mark. No reply. Nothing moves on the other side. Whole seasons passed between our words. Still, you could hear what no one heard. Now something aches beneath my skin. No voice outside. No peace within. I never needed proof to know that you were there. Now I reach across the silence and close my hands on air. No words to weigh, no part to play. You felt like home from worlds away. We never needed words for this— Now there’s no word for what I miss. How can you still feel this close to me When you’re somewhere I can never reach? We needed little. We left so much unsaid. An open door. A thread without an end. I leave a space where you should be. For all we were. For all we’ll never be. No words to weigh, no part to play. You felt like home from worlds away. We never needed words for this— Now there’s no word for what I miss. How can you still feel this close to me When you’re somewhere I can never reach? I BELIEVED IN FATE. BUT THIS WAS NEVER RIGHT! DON’T TELL ME IT WAS MEANT TO BE! DON’T TELL ME TIME WILL HEAL! I DON’T NEED A REASON. I NEED YOU HERE! No words to weigh, no part to play. You felt like home from worlds away. We never needed words for this— Now there’s no word for what I miss. I still turn to you when words won’t come. For half a breath, you’re not yet gone. One mark. No reply. I still have things to tell you.
