Did you know?

Did you know? I hum your name when no one's near Trace the echoes of your breath— on your mirror.. Like a song you’ve never sung But still remembered I know the way Your shoulders fold beneath the weight Of words you never let escape But I hear them anyway You leave no footprints, yet I follow A shadow stitched into your soul You never called, yet here I stand Knowing where you’d go Do you feel it when the air stands still? Like a name you’ve never spoken But it lingers on your tongue— Something waiting You hesitate before the door You hesitate before the door Like you expect to hear me breathing Soft as dust upon the floor— I have always been here I don’t need to touch to hold I don’t need to see to know You don’t have to speak— I already heard I don’t need to touch to hold I don’t need to see to know You don’t have to speak— I already heard You don’t have to speak— I already heard Your fingers brush the fabric of my arm A fleeting touch, but still, I feel the warmth I’m waiting, still unspoken, in your room With every silent word, I grow a little more Do you feel it when the air stands still? Like a name you’ve never spoken But it lingers on your tongue— Something waiting to be real You turn away, but I remain Nestled close, where I have always been No voice, no weight—just the shape of me Waiting where you left me last Do you feel it, the hush between heartbeats? A thread undone, a silent seam A lullaby you lost in sleep I’ve woven into all your dreams A thread that frays, but never seems I listen, You breathe You turn, I stay You dream— I wait...
